    So they remove the ASG from Atlanta due to a debatable voting law, and instead move it to a state that legalized a drug that kills billions of people a year?

    Where’s the outrage?

    MLB just preferred a more white community.

    Braves players and coaches should refuse to play. Liberty Media should honor any all-star bonuses to personnel who are selected but don't attend the game.

    Why TF would players and coaches do that?

    Because this was a stupid decision by MLB based on emotions rather than facts. And because moving the game causes a significant financial loss to the community in which they reside.

    Manfred is the worst commissioner in sports and it isn't close.

    A coworker friend told me that he read that the Braves Franchise is livid. Anyone read anything to that effect?

    Hell they moved it to Liberty Media's home state. Kinda a slap in their face.

    So it appears that it does indeed get more "white than Cobb co (Smyrna, GA)". By a considerable bit also.

    Again though, I was just playing on that being a reason, but you got my interest when you got so upset
