8. Who's calling for all this World Series propaganda, the White House?
Bush and the republicans who hated and fought against civil rights, certainly don't give a shit...and the nightly 'god Bless America' more propaganda...When did this kind of bullshit start happening at the WS...Does the baseball commissioner get direct orders from the WH?
What kind of shit is slated for tomorrow night...more shit to make us more patriotic and hateful those who oppose BushCo and his wars for profit?
They have been singing God Bless America ever since they restarted games about two weeks after 9/11/2001. (The Yankees were doing it best for a while - they had this fantastic Irish Tenor singing it)
And several years before that they made a BIG DEAL about Jackie Robinson. EVERY team was required to honor him and retire his number. The Rosa Parks thing is still in that vein.
10. Agreed, but MLB is a bastion of the flying monkey right ...
Very few Dem players, management or owners. Case in point, the Cubs ... owned by the wonderfully Republican Tribune Company. I recall Mark Grace (ex-Cubs 1st baseman)making cracks about Hillary when she visited Wrigley Field. :puke:
12. Hey, I recall a "Jacobin" on DU a while back...when I was someone else.
