The claim you made was that the rule of "everyone has to wear the exact same uniform" didn't apply to blacks since "at least Trayvon Martin." Do you have an example of that or not?
As just one example, during the 2025 World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays, players from both sides wrote "#51" on their hats as a gesture of support for Dodgers reliever Alex Vesia. Vesia and his wife tragically lost their newborn baby daughter as the series started.
I feel like this can very well be seen as an exception with every member of the team doing it, especially in regards to the nature of the situation. Also, this one is misleading (slightly) considering the "51" was stitched onto the Dodgers hats. The Blue Jays relievers wrote theirs to match, and given the situation I would fully support MLB turning a blind eye to it.
Aroldis Chapman and Adolis Garcia in 2021 wrote "SOS CUBA" on their hats during the All-Star Game that year.
The All Star Game has typically allowed for more flexibility in team uniforms, considering that players are either all wearing their normal team jerseys or jerseys with their home team logo. There are rules in regular MLB seasons regarding cleats and bat colors, for example, but those are relaxed in the All Star Game.
Another Dodgers reliever, Blake Treinen, drew two crosses with Charlie Kirk's name on his hat after Kirk was assassinated in 2025. Clayton Kershaw also wrote a Bible verse on his "Pride Night" hat.
This is the best example though of rules for one player but not another. I agree it should be enforced across the board.
The rule has applied when players have done this. They were told to change.
FALSE
THEY ACTIVELY SUPPORTED THE YEARS OF NIGGER DINDU NUFFIN POSTURING SINCE AT LEAST TRAYVON MARTIN
Can you share an example?
Just so we're clear on it, we're looking for a uniform modification that was permitted during a game, just so we're getting a 1:1 here.
The entirety of BLM, that stupid kneeling shit, everything
Kneeling isn't altering the uniform.

There are cases with players writing stuff on the cap that the league didn't do stuff about. They are included in the shared article
Ah, I see. Thank you!

Yes it's very liberal to think enforce the rules until the exception is needed for what I find important.
I think that's pretty common among all people, not just liberals lol. We all make exceptions to rules we enforce constantly.
