and you just know they'd be forced to choose something...progressive.
It's the Atlanta CivilRighters!
Goooo Atlanta Kings!
Hear it for your Atlanta LoveisLove!
Does anybody fricking know the Indians are the Guardians? Does any Washington fan think they aren't the Redskins?
Does anyone know all the local tribes are okay with it? It's only people external to the situation that have a problem with it. Even Chief Noc A Homa himself is a damn Braves fan.

I know Cleveland is now the Guardians. Not calling them that.
I call them the Indians if I cheer for them or the Steamers if I am not.

The Dodgers and Sox make it over these two and the whining goes away despite the Sox being accused of cheating as bad or worse than the Astros.
The White Sox scandal was worse, like orders of magnitude worse. Every team in baseball steals signs, the Astros just got caught.
The White Sox threw a World Series.

Red Sox, not White Sox.
The Red Sox got accused of doing the same things the Astros did and more with regard to cheating and even hired a key Astros management member IIRC.

The White Sox threw (allegedly) the 1919 World Series.

That article is a woke troll article and the standard continued assault on anything giving joy to the masses on the right. Keep poking and poking and poking.

I love it! I hope they keep melting!

The original comments were about the Red Sox and Dodgers, who were the Braves and Astros’ league championship series opponents.

They’ve been the Braves since 1871. It is the oldest franchise in baseball. When I was a kid, they were still playing in Boston (before they became the Milwaukee Braves). There are still geezers in the Northeast and Midwest who follow the Braves.

Maybe they should just pick the two most “woke” teams and that is who gets to go to the World Series. Trophies and hugs for everyone since there can’t be a winner.

I don’t particularly like the Dodgers or the Sox.
I’m just pointing out that both teams have issues of their own and that the writer would have been more than happy to have them in there.
IOW, “When I get what I want, everything is fine. The second I don’t, it needs to be changed!”

Like Dave Chapelle, Atlanta will not bend the knee.
Deal with it.
Deal with it.

Braves, Indians, Seminoles, Redskins, Utes, etc., etc., why are these names offensive? These names were chosen to honor native Americans, not to disparage. Does anyone think "Tigers" was chosen to dishonor large predatory black stripe felines? Actually, using their names this way retains their memory in history, otherwise they will be forgotten. BTW, my wife is 25% Cherokee and she has no desire to tell Jeep and Piper aircraft to quit using her ethnic roots to name their vehicles.
