He’s been on the DL all season. Initially projected to return early to mid May, now maybe in July, but all the while his rehab as been described as on schedule. He was the most woke kneeler on the Cardinals in prior seasons. Seems he can kneel on what others deem important, but they aren’t allowed to kneel on whatever he supports. How Democratic of him. Cards play at Tampa starting Tuesday.

Who do they work for? Do they know. They are not working for the audience. The audience just wants to watch baseball, same for the past 120 years.

“The Rays players explained their decision by saying that wearing the logo would violate their religious beliefs”

And there it is.....it’s not about homos...it’s about attacking Christians.

You can ask Tim Tebow about that one.

Flaherty steamed that the players’ decision was an “absolute joke,” as he criticized Rays Jason Adam, Jalen Beeks, Brooks Raley, Jeffrey Springs, and Ryan Thompson for refusing to wear the activist logo.

Don't be a faggot, bro.

St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Jack Flaherty blasted several Tampa Bay Rays players for refusing to wear the gay pride logo in Saturday’s game.

Another one who undoubtably believes in “diversity” unless someone disagrees with him.

Agreed !!! I used to watch professional football every Sunday. It was like a religion. Walked away after the Kapernik nonsense and now I realize just how much precious time I wasted sitting around watching a kiddie game that my kids were not even in.

Anyone with an objection to vile sexual practices should refuse to wear that crap. Not just religious people.

For context... Flaherty is basically the Cardinal’s Colin Kaepernick... a woke, adopted, half+ white BLM supporter.

Exactly, and for Baptists as well June holds the feast days of St. Charles Spurgeon and St. David Brainerd.

Gays need to show some tolerance.

I heard one of the conservative radio commentators (it may have been Levin) ask recently, “Why is there a Gay Pride Month”?

There’s a Mother’s Day, a Father’s Day, a Memorial Day, and a President’s Day. But an entire month for “Gay Pride”

These ball players fancy themselves as big strong men. And yet, they get an email from Red China or somewhere telling them to support sin and silliness and they fall apart like old chalk.

I thought rich people could do what they want. Apparently rich people take orders and say yes sir too.

I've seen men and women with kids - and working for modest wages - show more courage standing up to wrongdoers that the typical billionaire athlete.

I never watch national professional “Sports”.

They are all co-opted into the Marxist Satanic Propaganda.

Will not let them in my brain. Nope.

Sports used to unite us as a nation, now it’s just another reason to fracture us against one another.

Thanks, leftists.

Be assimilated by the collective …… there will be no individuals. Ain’t diversity the answer we are told to believe is/as better ?

Matthew %:11 Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.
