The most illuminating part of the letter is screenshotted below: -- Apparently, Giants management did not convey to the players that the wearing of the Pride uniforms was not mandatory. (Perhaps because had they done so, many more of the players than were strongly enough motivated to engage in protest by writing Bible verses on their Pride hats would have declined to wear the uniforms.) -- "The players were neither fined nor disciplined, *nor will they ever be.*" The league has just issued official league-wide guidance giving every player license to opt out of Pride celebration without penalty. Let's see how many players wear the uniform next year.

Our investigation into MLB will continue. MLB thinks it can sweep this under the rug with a non-apology. Any sign of Christian viewpoint discrimination will be rooted out.

“The players were neither fined nor disciplined, nor will they ever be.” So what was the point of MLB issuing a warning to the players? If you give someone a warning, there’s implied to be consequences for disobeying, right? MLB knows they screwed up and are trying to save face.

JUST IN: MLB has reversed course and will not fine Giants players who wore Bible verse messages on LGBTQ Pride caps. GOOD.

Okay, need to say something else on this letter MLB sent to Hawley. They have the audacity to say, "At the league level, MLB has twelve league-wide events each year in which the uniform or hat is altered...Mother's Day, Father's Day, Armed Forces Weekend, Play Ball Weekend, Memorial Day, Lou Gehrig Day, Independence Day, Hall of Fame Weekend, Childhood Cancer Awareness Day, September 11th, Jackie Robinson Day and Roberto Clemente Day." "For these days, players wear special uniforms and hats, and for some of the days, the Uniform Regulations contained in the collective bargaining agreement are relaxed per agreement with the Union. We are unaware of any significant complaints from fans or players regarding these celebratory days." You mean the players didn't object to celebrating MOTHERS or efforts to defeat CHILDHOOD CANCER? What a shock! Celebrating Pride is a highly divisive issue. Only 37 percent of Republicans now support the redefinition of marriage to include same-sex couples. Only 38 percent of the ENTIRE American electorate thinks it's moral to change genders. So I don't know, maybe THIS issue received some pushback where childhood cancer didn't because there isn't broad public agreement on this issue? In fact, since the BLM years, Pride is the ONLY divisive social issue for which the league has officially endorsed a side. No one's debating whether we should fight cancer in kids. Everyone agrees. Same with celebrating moms or dads. Other than the extremist state of New York which wants to replace them with "gestational" and "non gestational parent," those other specially branded uniforms aren't at all controversial to anyone.

Major League Baseball needs to get rid of Pride Nights altogether… They should not allow the Los Angeles Dodgers & San Francisco Giants the ability to coerce or shame Christian players into participating in a celebration of what the Bible calls sin. Players that don’t wear the Pride gear get just as much hate & vitriol as when they write bible verses on them.

This basically means athletes can opt out of Pride uniforms now without fear of discipline from leagues

If US players want to play for the US teams, let’s do it US players on US teams. Canadians on Canadian teams. Then let’s watch the 7 Canadian teams remind everyone where hockey comes from and bring the Stanley Cup back where it belongs 🇨🇦

Competive goals against top nations: Ronaldo Messi Spain 4 0 Germany 2 0 France 2 2 Netherlands 3 1 Brazil 0 0 But you want to gas a hat trick against Algeria 😂😂

I respect Messi a lot, but that hattrick vs Algeria was the worst thing that could’ve happened to Argentina. He’s chasing Klose now while Mbappé plays Iraq tomorrow. Bookmark this when he forces 10 shots, scores none, and Austria take points because he won’t pass.

Sorry but rates were not 3% when we first bought our homes. They were 12% and we made $3.34 an hour. We also had children to feed, didn’t go out to eat more than a couple times a year and had zero money left over at the end of the month after paying all bills. We worked our way up the working ladder and didn’t buy bigger and better things as we made more money so we could start saving and investing. Life is hard. Stop making it harder with your excuses.
