Just gauging the league and where teams are right now. Seeing how many teams to try and get players from and how many teams won't be dealing much of their top tier guys when the time comes.

All those Native American-named teams are just as guilty. Indians, redskins, chiefs and FSU it’s not just the bravos

Fuck the braves and their racist ass tomahawk chop bro don't be ignorant and brainwashed the Tomahawk was a tool and only a weapon in times of war. It was a multi-purpose central part of the culture. |

My high school team was the Tomahawks. We told any groups that came to us to fuck off and read some actual history.

Well one thing is for sure. The majority of gm’s here are white conservatives that care less about people from other ethnic backgrounds than their own. I can’t say the same.

I'm actually very liberal but I don't judge others choices or assume anything about anyone. Especially in a for fun baseball sim league. Not sure how the thread veered this silly direction. |

The original debate was whether the Braves’ tomahawk chop they do at SunTrust Park is some racist shit or not. I very much believe it is. In 1988 when they pretty much started this, you know who thought it was racist? Nobody. Absolutely nobody. You know how many indians protested? None. Absolutely none. You know why it's a big deal today? Because politicians want to make everything about race. On both sides. I started watching baseball in the late 70's. You know how many times I, or literally ANYONE thought "Cleveland Indians. How racist!" Never. If you want to get pissed off about real issues like immigration reform or climate change or the out of control deficit or over taxation or the problem with lobbyists or term limits, be my guest. Don't be distracted by non issues that people are trying to trick you in to believing are issues. Get real man. None of this "Oh I'm offended" bullshit is left or right. It's just fucking stupid. End of rant.

I'd also add that if you were a Braves fan and not a Mets fan I'd bet money you wouldn't be so offended. You'd probably be pissed that little piss ants are crying about make believe issues.

This is one of my favorite posts. Ever. Couldn't have said it better! I'm also a life long Republican who hates Trump with the fire of seven suns who identifies more with centrist Dems than crazy righties anymore, so.................there's that lol. I get so tired of everyone trying to paint everyone in to a corner. I really believe that 80% of everyone is in the middle and is just tired of being played by greedy politicians and nutjobs in both parties. All of these make believe issues are just distractions from the real issues. I have no problems with Shale or anyone else, but don't fall for stupid bullshit. I hate the chop because it's annoying as shit and as a Husker fan who had to listen to Noles fans do it about a billionty times while they were kicking our ass in a handful of games it got really old. I never thought, jeez. These seminole fans are racists. I just thought they were fans of a team that I fucking hated. End of story. |
