The Team I root for, the SF Giants (no offense to people who suffer from Gigantism) have been virtue signaling to appease the woke crowd for some time now, they have all the bases covered when it comes to being "progressive".

Doesn't bother me, I just wish they would also cover the most important base and field a winning Team, which they seemed to have put on the bottom of the list of priorities.

Really? Is this a progressive issue? I would think it's more about human decency. I'm not your mascot.

Chuckle...
I suggest the #ClevelandIndians rename themselves the #Cleveland Virtue Signallers and their mascot can be a genderless human in a onesie

So Yankees should go based on your perspective.

For many posts on this thread, I can't tell whether or not sarcasm is intended.

At the rate we are going, how long will it be before possession of items containing these “offensive” words become illegal? Sounds crazy but what we’re doing now would have sounded crazy 20 years ago.

Ironic that white liberals think they need to tell Native Americans what's best for them. That's wokest part of all.

We should probably get rid of the Padres name to appease the atheists too.

Yankee is a derogatory term used to describe people from the US outside of this country.
