But why are the two shirts of color together holding hands while the white shirt chooses to distance itself from the shirts of color?

The Astros jersey is closer so we care more than Oakland. Run that headline The Athletic!

i would have gladly squatted and took a good dump all over that damn BLM shirt. Crane tolerates his damn manager wearing one of them on TV.

If black lives matter, why are thousands more black babies aborted than allowed to live each year in New York? Nationwide blacks represent 13% of the population, but account for 36% of abortions. If black lives matter, why is it that the number of black men killed is 4 times the national average and 88% of the time the person who did the killing was another black? It is long past time that the black community stop blaming others for their plight; take a hard look at themselves and take responsibility for themselves and their actions. Others cannot drag them out of the pit that they have created for themselves. They have to face the truth about themselves and turn themselves around. Nobody else can do it for them. A couple of excellent articles on the subject: www.wsj.com/articles/lets-talk-about-the-black-abortion-rate-1531263697www.nationalreview.com/magazine/2019/12/22/the-need-to-discuss-black-on-black-crime/

I told my wife last night, for the sports/teams that are protesting, we will longer watch and/or support.. That is a good start. A good next step is to stop buying the products of the companies that sponsor these teams. There is one thing that will get the attention of the businesses who support BLM. That one thing is the loss of profits. When these businesses support of BLM starts hitting them in the pocketbook they will stop funding BLM. Think about it. When you purchase products sold by a company that supports BLM, you are helping to fund BLM. It is that simple.

I will only use my local grocery store from now on.

Now I guess I can only shop at Randalls. Not many people shop at Randalls, so the lines are not as long. However, the selection is not as good and the prices are higher. However they do tend to employ people of special needs. Me being a parent of that has a kid with autism, I do shop at Randalls... But I love my HEB...F' F' F'

I was wrong about Bregman.........According to this article, Josh Reddick instigsated this shit and Bakler backed it. As for Reddick, get rid fo the son of a bitch. Nature Boy,also the American flag undies guy? Who would have thought.... But at this point, it doesn't really matter, the team boycotted yesterday, so they're all guilty in my eyes... Personally, I hope they win the WS, but get a dose of reality, when ratings are low in Houston during the world series run and future years. Plus a ton of empty seats, even after people are allowed to go back to the game. F' them.

Then, Crane will see what this shit caused. I agree with unionstation......Crane is kissing ass with the commissioner's office to try to get back in the good graces.
