I wasn't trying to "kidnap" anything. Other sports have protested.



GAME THEORY
How the WNBA Stood Up to Trump and Won Fans

The WNBA didn’t arrive here without a few stumbles. Two seasons ago, before Trump was elected president and in Borders’ first season as commissioner, players from several teams wore black T-shirts during warmups in support of the Black Lives Matter movement after two men were killed by police officers in Minnesota and Louisiana. In response, the league levied $500 fines on the players for violating the league’s uniform policy.

But the players pushed back. After a game between the Indiana Fever and New York Liberty, players talked only about their protest and the issue of social justice, refusing to answer questions about the game. On social media, they spoke out publicly against the fines. A few days later, the league retreated, and Borders rescinded the fines. “When you have a league with so many women of color, so many of them educated and attuned to social justice issues, the league realized there was no neutral ground,” said Howard Megdal, editor-in-chief of highposthoops.com, a site that covers the WNBA.

If football can do it, and basketball can do it, why not baseball?

Why is this thread still ongoing? didn't you get the memo that baseball was cancelled this year?

[2dimes]

I know, beer is yucky.

[DoomYoshi]

I never got to see this because I was listening on the radio. That's awesome. Hopefully the As win tonight.

that was kind of gay of arenado, i was pissed.

if he had tried to get out of the hug and fake a throw to first and then ask for interference he would've got the double play call.. but he looked like he wanted the hug.. well, like disappointed he hadnt chose to throw second instead to get a double play (contreras running with a cramp).


it was a key moment and could've costed them the game.

just like bud black lifting amazing kyle freeland with two outs in the 7th, almost costed the whole season in one stupid move.

[2dimes]

Well, I'm not a very good fan but I miss it now the season's done.

I should have picked ice soccer to make winter better.

[DoomYoshi]

I didn't know that you were interested in Bandy.

tzor always loses to me in fantasy baseball. so damn easy.

even without a catcher my teams beat his.


who am i kidding, everybody loses to me in fantasy baseball.

[tzor]

I'm generally a loser in fantasy baseball. My 2019 team soared to first place and then it went downhill from there. I'm currently in the consolidation brackets and probably going to lose. I think I'm actually a curse to the players I pick up.

DFS, on the other hand, I'm almost break even on 50/50 games.
