Cmon man with the cancel culture argument you are better than that. And btw, MLB literally canceled the All Star game in Georgia.
Good luck finding that, not easy. I posted this above, about the closest I could get https://forums.footballguys.com/topic/795818-mlb-moves-all-star-game-in-response-to-ga-voter-laws/?do=findComment&comment=23332500
You’re boycotting the MLB in hopes that they go broke. How is that not cancel culture?Don't know where you got "cancel culture" from my post.
What I'm doing and what "cancel culture" does are two separate things. Not even related.
Don’t worry i’ll place spoiler and let you know the Padres are going to win at all anyway.
because I'm an individual doing what I see fit. I'm not a mob constantly attacking.
They’re a pretty good team for the first time in like forever. Tough division though.Don’t worry i’ll place spoiler and let you know the Padres are going to win at all anyway.
That’s because there’s only one side trying to use voter ID as a pretense to prevent black people from voting.
It is what it is, Tim.
####, sorry Norville, wrong post....meant this one https://forums.footballguys.com/topic/795818-mlb-moves-all-star-game-in-response-to-ga-voter-laws/?do=findComment&comment=23332493
You’re not a victim. You never will be.It is what it is, Tim.
I can't convince you guys to stand up for yourself. You have to do that on your own. Just remember that because of your skin color you are still the enemy regardless of how much virtue signaling you do. That's how this plays out. See S.Africa as test case #1.
I'd say one canceled an event, and he's just choosing not to support them further. I think the left has defeated conservatives in this type thing in recent years for sure. While conservatives tend to support their teams and not mix politics and sports, the left has brought itself into sports. Conservatives have to decide if they want to continue turning the other cheek, in which case this is the new status quo, or to try and do something similar.
Yeah, I get it. I'm just one guy so you're all smug. That's fine.No, don’t, stop. Come back.
I genuinely don’t understand how this wouldn’t qualify as cancel culture, especially given some of the stories I’ve seen posted in the cancel culture thread. He’s boycotting a company in hopes that they go bankrupt which essentially means he wants them cancelled. Totally agree that the MLB moving the game is an example of cancel culture as well.
That's because there's only one side that has such low expectations for black people that they are certain they cannot obtain any of the following:
If we’re comparing smugness, I’m not the one that said “get work, go broke.”
It won’t work.
They will never get vaccinated then.
It’s so ridiculous how bad we have been for so long. They have tried different GMs, different scouts, new ownership. It’s crazy to me.
Childish like this:
Those in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. I know that opposing views must set you off, but try to be better.No, don’t, stop. Come back.
I don’t know why you grabbed the Angels former GM. I could have told you that was a mistake.
And yet another post that confirms you either don't understand or are being a blatant liar.
I mean we can call anything cancel culture because basically there is no definition and you can make it whatever you want.
I’m not sure what the official definition of cancel culture is so maybe I’m wrong here.
You're probably right. It's outside of my nature to boycott things because I feel like my personal views are just that.
"Cancel Culture" not only involves a mob, it also involves companies kowtowing to them and their demands.I mean we can call anything cancel culture because basically there is no definition and you can make it whatever you want.
I don't like tortillas so I'm not eating what my wife cooked tonight....did I cancel her or her dinner or tortillas?
I personally don't consider individuals decisions to not purchase from retailers or companies cancel culture. I don't consider people not eating at Chick Fil A cancel culture. I consider a mob of twitter losers attacking someone because they eat at Chick Fil A cancel culture.
I'd consider a sports league penalizing a state for supporting voter ID stupid and probably a much closer example of cancel culture than an individuals decision. But like I said, everyone just makes up their own #### when it comes to the definition so you can make yours up too
I've participated in zero boycotts. Outside of you know actual genocide or sex trafficking, if you put out something is a good product I'll use it. I don't give a #### about the political leanings
haha, no I love tortillas.
This might be the year though. Pitching still sucks but Ohtani is healthy and their division sucks. You might be seeing Trout in October when games matter. Maybe.
Bill Bavasi, right? Yeah that guy was a major turd.
The best minor league pitcher I ever saw was a Seattle prospect named Roger Salkeld. Bone spurs and shoulder surgery took the zip off his pitches. He eventually recovered enough to pitch some between AAA and the majors but this guy had the talent to be the next Seaver. To see him before and after was sad for what could have been.
