I think every baseball, NFL, basketball and NASCAR team should just straight up stop competing until something meaningful is done about guns

Oh shit! How long before DeSantis has something to say about the Rays just like he did with Disney?
shanlearael
Damn it, don't make me like the Yankees. This is going to make me respect them. Damn it.
reformedxile
It's not like I like the Mets, I just don't like the Yankees. That said, Go Yanks
TBRichard
Leave it to the fucking Yankees to give me a reason to root for them. Damn it.

This ends when Republicans are out of office everywhere. Vote out Republicans then we can start to make real progress.

AR-15 most used gun in mass shootings. Ban that gun. New gun takes its place. Ban that gun. So on and so on until it stops. Do SOMETHING
BigFatJuicyMonkies
Oh I think these events are quite tolerable. That's why they keep happening.
blaghart
Noice, they can start with how we don't even FUCKING KNOW THE IMPACT OF GUN VIOLENCE, BC GUN COMPANIES LOBBIED TO BAN STUDIES ON IT
Btch128
Pretty sure the right doesn't like baseball because they have too many immigrants.
mormonbatman
Whoa - this is awesome
leroy666
Hate the Yankees. But, yes; this is classy.
forResearchPurposesOnly
Good that Dems we’re able to stop the ban on gun violence statistics.
Imalwaysready
Better hope they hold power lest that go away again, too.
JustDriftingAboutTheInterWebs
sports teams doing more than the republicans will ever do regarding gun violence. jfc.
Strategicgnomer
Bring the gun violence to the republicans! Let them feel the terror for once. Sick sons of bitches.
VagisilToothpaste
And now the repubs will give up on sports. Good. Better crowds at games.
LyingSOB
Good. Maybe people will learn where the real problem with gun violence is rather than what the media tells them everytime this happens.

Read a book. Or better yet, a few white papers on the subject...

Like the one right there you ignored so you could attack me like the dishonest shithead you know you are?
CreepyPhlox
I know this is just my own conspiracy theory that isn’t any better than what qanon does but I can’t shake the uneasy feeling I get when…
CreepyPhlox
…days after a white s’macist shoots black ppl, a man w/ a Hispanic name shoots children in a majority Hispanic school. Is it a distraction?
rshini
You don't pay attention do you? It's a thing, when there's a high-profile shooting happens, copycats follow.
qazxswedcvfrtgbnhyujmkiol
Just... stop.
truthsmiles
I don’t think it’s related at all. The Uvalde shooter was a disturbed young man.

Pretty sure the right already hates the Yankees
jasari
As a Yankee fan everyone hates the Yankees, even Yankee fans a little bit.
NoodleyLove
To be fair, I thought everyone hated the Yankees.
pinheadbrigade
Red Sox fan checking in. I harbor enough hate to cover everyone here, no worries.

Thanks!

I can't wait for the idiots to try and cancel the Yankees.

I feel like you’re underestimating idiots
ArchangelZeriel
Remember, it's not "cancelling" when they do it, it's god-fearing patriotic boycotts like Father Capitalism intended.
HarryDresdenIsMySpiritAnimal
Oh boy, my uncle is a HUGE Yankees fan. This is gonna be fan-fucking-tastic.
FlatPlutoSociety
The Mariners have to play the Yankees six times in 10 days in August, so I'd be okay with the Yankees being cancelled right about now.

Oh, so it’s already started!

Yes. The American pastime full of immigrants.

Good thing this is a 4 second loop because it needs to be said about every 4 seconds.

Soon there will be a Conservative Baseball League. It will last a year but not before fleecing its fans for millions of dollars.
naytorin
Would look a whole lot like pre-1947 MLB
paintingagency
Oh it sure would.
Maxgaap
Mets fans have been unsuccessfully trying to do something about the Yankees for 100 years
DisgruntledFerret
The Ny Mets are my fa-vor-ite squadron.
obviouslyrob
Mets were formed in 1962.
DukeDarkwood
Which just shows how dedicated they are, to have been trying for longer than they've existed! Or something. Go sportsball?
Maxgaap
Doh! You're very right! Forgot they were one of the first MLB expansion teams.
obviouslyrob
Still, 60 years is *most* of a century.
Orionsbellybutton
It's ok. We understand that Mets fans have decades of trauma from the Yankees. It probably feels like a hundred years.
PutItInNeutral
Every American League team formed after 1901 is an expansion team. Ditto for every National League team formed after 1876.
Maxgaap
MLB was formed in 1903 by the merger of the American League and National League and no teams were added till the 1960s
CitizenClam
Pop quiz hotshot: why were the Mets formed?
Maxgaap
Cause the Giants and Dodgers left
CaptainYesterday
A reason to drink?
obviouslyrob
Wary NY politicians thinking the people of Queens needed something to focus their misery on instead of them?
HiddenSanity
To make the other teams look good?
