What the shite does the NFL and NBA having a dress code have to do with baseball players throwing at each other?


The predominantly black leagues have league standards and rule changes that make them more corporate and less barbaric. A mostly white league like hockey allows fighting and baseball lets you throw at one another.

Stephen A kinda has a point, although I'm not sure racism is the right way to phrase it.

Explain how the MLB "lets" players throw at each other(and I assume beat each other up) while the predominantly black leagues don't allow this.

NBA fights weren't exactly a huge deal until they decided to be idiots and go into the stands.

Football players are constantly antagonizing eachother, and as long as you don't throw a punch it's usually not an ejection. shite, what's the baseball equivilant of Odell Beckham Jr. and Josh Norman allowed to be complete assholes to each other for 60 minutes without anyone being ejected?
