I'm told major League baseball starts today. Are you gonna capitulate and watch it or be a damn man and boycott. Too many conservatives fold like a cheap suit.

I was really excited about the start of the season but I hate that they are giving in to the political movement of BLM.

I’m sure many will say they won’t be watching but many will.

Easy pass for me.

I rarely watch any baseball.
Now that will be zero.

Is it ok if I just make an individual decision whereby I've decided I no longer want to support organizations and players that openly say they hate me without being part of a boycott?

If so, I'm doing the same for:

NFL
NBA
College Football (specifically not using my LSU tickets this year and will not be getting them again starting in the 2021 season for the first time since 2001.

Honestly...it's not that hard.

I watched the NBA yesterday and it was a welcome diversion. I think it’s stupid to deprive yourself of sports at this time.

You can’t say you’re against cancel culture then try to get people to cancel viewing sports.

Unless you’re a hypocrite.

It's not just conservatives. In America, we're just too accustomed to our luxuries and refuse to give them up, even if they hurt us.

Hmmm nope, this is a false premise. I don’t agree with cancel culture and am not watching it. Guess MLB and the NBA will see who their fans are. Hope the NFL see the results and pulls a 180 before their season.

There is a big difference between a person having a political opinion and a corporation making a political statement.

Im not looking up players, managers and coaches’ addresses and trying to get them fired. I’m simply refusing to watch in hopes that they’ll see that they need to keep politics out of their workplace.
