cultural views to be all-defining. I enjoy baseball because I enjoy baseball (though I hate the damn shift). There have always been plenty of players that I have agreed with and disagreed with.

Or you can just stop watching.

Or you can keep watching and be miserable.

You do you.

I enjoy golf. Am glad baseball is playing though too. - reedus23 MU - 7/26 19:08:09

i'm losing my interest in sports over time - it's definitely - 90Tiger STL - 7/26 17:47:02

It is what you make of it. nm - reedus23 MU - 7/26 19:10:46

yes, and that's what I make of it (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 7/26 19:31:24

I mean it when I suggest that you just stop watching then. - reedus23 MU - 7/26 19:41:44

try reading it this time - 90Tiger STL - 7/26 20:02:34

I read it. Just not sure why you watch. nm - reedus23 MU - 7/26 20:20:41

because I've yet to lose all interest (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 7/26 20:49:20

Agreed. I'm close to writing off the Blues & Cards - zounami MU - 7/26 18:16:18

You should then. Why would you devote time to something - reedus23 MU - 7/26 19:09:00

it's a question of how much politicization fans can tolerate - zounami MU - 7/26 19:30:37

I hear ya. The whole forcing players to stand for the - reedus23 MU - 7/26 19:51:11

The flag and national anthem have been politicized... - zounami MU - 7/26 20:01:51

Probably because they find that there are other - reedus23 MU - 7/26 20:25:28

I would be fine with not playing the anthem at sporting - zounami MU - 7/26 20:35:24

Well, for whatever it's worth, I hope all the bull**** - reedus23 MU - 7/26 20:42:15

it probably won't (nm) - zounami MU - 7/26 21:04:54

Then quit making it about anything else but sports - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:11:04

I don't make it about anything, I consume what is presented - 90Tiger STL - 7/26 19:32:07

I didn’t start wearing t-shirts with controversial - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:25:18

What's controversial about "Black Lives Matter"? Are - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:41:28

lol, keep pretending you think that's what BLM is - 90Tiger STL - 7/26 19:33:01

BLM is a Marxist founded organization that speaks out - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:43:22

It's your mischaracterization of their values. Nm - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:44:12

It’s their characterization - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:46:59

No, it's yours...and you have yet to justify it. Nm - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:47:40

Their founder has admitted it - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:49:17

Two of the co-founders have "Marxist training". However, - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:52:54

Critical Race Theory has strong ties to Marxism. - ummmm MU - 7/26 19:06:14

Answer the question. Nm - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 19:09:14

There is more to Marxism than that what you asked about. - ummmm MU - 7/26 19:14:30

What I asked is the basis for Marxism, as belief in free - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 19:24:59

You clearly don't understand Marxism, or, more likely, are - 90Tiger STL - 7/26 19:34:44

Which is odd since he’s a socialist (nm) - pickle MU

- 7/26 19:51:52

it's paramount he protect the facade until power is - 90Tiger STL - 7/26 20:50:11

As an aside, one thing I have noticed about you is that - ummmm MU - 7/26 19:34:23

ouch (nm) - pickle MU

- 7/26 19:50:04

Total "government" ownership of the means of production - ummmm MU - 7/26 19:31:09

No question about that - meatiger MU - 7/26 19:08:41

Who is correct about what is going on? The CRT people? - ummmm MU - 7/26 19:11:36

CRT?(nm) - meatiger MU - 7/26 19:12:52

Critical Race Theory. (nm) - ummmm MU - 7/26 19:14:51

RE: CRT?(nm) - pickle MU

- 7/26 19:14:37

I have never claimed that(nm) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:54:47

The first part of my response you basically said two - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:57:06

I said they were a Marxist organization - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:58:45

You are full of shyte, and not providing evidence. You - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 19:01:14

They’re Marxist. It’s indisputable. - pickle MU

- 7/26 19:20:10

Because Matt Gaetz and Mark Levin say so? Two of three - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 19:28:59

Lol what? (nm) - pickle MU

- 7/26 19:44:29

When the game is going on - meatiger MU - 7/26 18:36:07

So tell me the center right political causes - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:41:34

Everything military and country worship - meatiger MU - 7/26 18:44:50

Many liberals have proudly served in our military - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:46:18

All was fine when many on the right were hating Kaepernick - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:49:43

Where did I ever say they couldn’t do what they want? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:51:42

I said many on the right...I did not mention you. A quick - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:54:51

Why do you ask me to defend positions you admit others - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:56:09

No, you said BLM was marxist. You refuse to provide - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:58:26

The military of the last 25 years - meatiger MU - 7/26 18:49:01

You are such a cliche - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:50:38

Nice counterpoint - meatiger MU - 7/26 18:52:31

You are the master of usual stuff - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:54:10

RE: You are the master of usual stuff - meatiger MU - 7/26 19:06:15

The problem is equating BLM with the KKK. That is the - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:43:38

I find Marxism every bit as abhorrent as the - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:45:12

Fine, but what does that have to do with BLM? When have - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:47:09

They are a Marxist organization - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 18:48:35

You have yet to show that they are Marxist. I don't believe - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:59:48

I would say they are more social marxists - meatiger MU - 7/26 19:11:55

They are certainly trying to change the narrative, but sorry - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 19:31:58

players like Adam BLM Wainwright are making that - zounami MU - 7/26 18:18:03

Why? Did his pitching start to go downhill? Nm - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:18:49

he's playing an active role in politicizing the sport, which - zounami MU - 7/26 18:25:07

He's voicing his 1st amendment rights? How has that - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:38:49

if Target puts up BLM propaganda throughout its stores - zounami MU - 7/26 19:25:45

I am sure if you go into any mass superstore - meatiger MU - 7/26 20:20:46

They actually may see a net gain in customers, which I - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 19:44:38

No, they would lose customers in droves. - zounami MU - 7/26 19:49:03

If it bothers you this much, you really should just stop - reedus23 MU - 7/26 19:32:31

That's the point. It's a question of how much politicization - zounami MU - 7/26 19:47:25

What's weird is...I haven't missed a Cards game yet. - reedus23 MU - 7/26 20:29:26

It's the pussification of sports. - Newcatbirdseat MU - 7/26 18:16:08

Then quit putting it in there. Nm - SparkyStalcup MU - 7/26 18:19:20

Surprised you're not watching NASCAR rooting for - Newcatbirdseat MU - 7/26 17:27:33

kind of silly (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 7/26 17:47:17

He already did, when he went the Jussie Smollett route - zounami MU - 7/26 17:34:53

Bubba can do that all on his own(nm) - DollarSigns MU - 7/26 17:33:34

NASCAR never really appealed to me - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 17:31:43

Me either, and I hope the "sport" goes bankrupt. (nm) - zounami MU - 7/26 17:35:44

Bubba has already gone down in a fiery wreck - he - RayKinsella1922 SEC - 7/26 17:30:52

Understatement(nm) - DollarSigns MU - 7/26 17:32:54

Likely so truth in that(nm) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/26 17:32:00
