MLB has, once again, entered the political arena.

I don’t have strong feelings either way but baseball is driven almost exclusively by money which is driven by sponsors. There are 2 competing narratives on the changes of GA voting laws.

1. Increased voter security
2. Voter suppression

Depending on where you get your news from, you’ll see # 1 or # 2.

No way MLB does this without sponsor support, which leads me to believe the corporations are accepting narrative #2 over narrative #1.

We shall see if other leagues follow suit, and pull out of GA putting GA government feet to the fire.

NCAA pulled out of North Carolina over some transgender thing awhile back.

Sports leagues likely follow both the most lucrative path and path of least resistance, so maybe they avoid GA going forward entirely as it’s easier to avoid this topic than try to explain to the uninformed masses that they’re willing to hold events like the Super Bowl or Final Four in GA yet don’t support voter suppression.

The fact that most talking heads on ESPN have come out in support of MLB in icing out GA leads me to believe most casual fans and non staunch Trump supporters won’t really care one way or the other as long as they have a game to watch.

The corporations dont really believe it is voter supression in its truest form

It is cheating supression and THAT is what they are opposed to, they need their puppets in place.

Major League Baseball operates a player Development Center in Communist China while relocating their All-Star Game from Atlanta, Georgia, merely because Georgia’s residents must use an ID to vote due to a newly passed state law.

This is an AP poll so you know it is ALREADY skewed a few points for the lib side.

I don’t think any if the sports leagues care about anything but maximizing revenue. They don’t care about voter rights, election security or voter fraud. MLB withdrawal of Allstar game from GA in their minds maximizes revenue. That being said, it is left to be seen if MLB popularity wanes to a point where they regret the decision to withdraw the Allstar game from GA.

[FONT=&quot]COBB COUNTY, Ga. — The Cobb County Travel and Tourism Bureau estimates that losses from Major League Baseball’s decision to move the All-Star Game out of Atlanta total more than $100 million.[/FONT]

“This event would have directly impacted our county and the state, as visitors spend their dollars on local accommodations, transportation, entertainment and recreation, food and retail throughout the county,” Cobb County Travel and Tourism said. “This would have been a big boost to Cobb businesses and help with recovery after the COVID-19 pandemic.”[/FONT]

MLB just gave a giant middle finger to all the black-owned small businesses of Atlanta

they gave the finger to all of the many small businesses affected by the loss of revenues. in addition, it is probable that the braves will be affected because the boycott will start by not attending braves games.

Claiming an ID is too hard for minorities to obtain is insulting and RACIST.

This insinuates they don’t have bank accounts, have never stayed in a hotel, owned a car, have credit, flown on a plane, signed up for internet or utilities, or even own or rent property
