MLB moving 2021 All-Star Game from Atlanta over Georgia voting law
Alden Gonzalez, ESPN Staff Writer https://www.espn.com/mlb
Major League Baseball announced Friday that it is moving the 2021 All-Star Game and 2021 draft out of Atlanta in protest of a new Georgia law that has raised concerns about its potential to disproportionately disenfranchise minority voters...
(March 26, 2021) MLBPA executive director Tony Clark said he "would look forward" to discussions around moving the Midsummer Classic -- slated for Tuesday, July 13 -- out of Truist Park, home of the Atlanta Braves. Five days after that, President Joe Biden, appearing on SportsCenter the night before Opening Day, said he would "strongly support" such a decision because of a law he described as "Jim Crow on steroids."

Coward MLB commissioner Rob Manfred, the A-Rod Slayer, couldn't fold fast enough to the woke mob. I'm disgusted. I didn't watch sports in 2020 when the three major professional team leagues (MLB, NFL, NBA) fell all over themselves involving their sports in NON-sports stuff. One of the primary reasons people follow sports is to get away from NON-sports stuff. The leagues cut way back on that in 2021 only to have MLB escalate again because the MLB union leader chose to inject this into the regular season. Get woke, go broke.
Tony Clark is a former MLB player (1995-2009) who got completely out negotiated by Manfred in the previous collective bargaining agreement and has now doubled down on his incompetence.
How do the 30% of his union members who are foreign born feel about this? They are getting dragged into NON-sports stuff for no good reason.
And how about the MLB team in Atlanta?

I purposely don't get into this crap unless it's pushed right into my face as this has been.

Great, now I have to decide whether to dump baseball for another year because Rob Manfred is a damn coward? Damn. Nobody gives a rat's ass what Rob Manfred or Tony Clark think about anything. NOBODY. Rob Manfred should stick to his job of negotiating better than Tony Clark.
Get woke, go broke.
