I have a religious objection.

Pride is one of those seven deadlies.

I get what you're saying, but a lot of teams do different awareness promotions and games, they're just not as covered as Pride.

The Astros literally just had Down Syndrome Awareness 2 days ago, and they usually do an Autism Awareness game with sensory friendly sections

---

that's the problem. "Pride" is beaten into us all the time and it's ****ing annoying. I turn on a sporting event because I want to watch a game. I don't want to be assaulted with whatever the hell the team or league is promoting that isn't related to sports.

This is why I haven't turned on a professional sporting event in years. I almost exclusively watch collegiate sports now because they aren't preaching anything else except the game itself

They should have a hemorrhoids awareness / gay pride night. Pretty much the same thing.

Took a break from work tonight and spent more than hour chasing the greatness of Norm and found this gem.

Norm,Conan, and a young Gordon Ramsey. Freaking hilarious.

that's awesome

Did you have this memorized and looked it up or do you have it saved for every June?

After a little further thought on this matter. I think a good comparison would be the reaction if a team tried to do a pro-life event at a game. I imagine that the left would be outraged, but expect Christians and other peoples of religion to accept the pride nights and claim oppression if you do not support them.

Oh man, the hits just keep coming for the Revolution.

Here's an idea, instead of pride events, how about gay-only games? In fact how about a gay only season? Only alphabet fans are allowed to attend the games, you know make it a safe space.

Let's see those owners fill stadiums, sell boxes and $30 beers then.

Watch it now, all safe places are not equal!

The difference between gay pride nights and other theme nights is the team/league is asking players to support what they consider sin. Supporting cancer awareness, down syndrome awareness, black history, public servant appreciation etc isn't supporting sin. True Christians believe homosexuality is sinful. As a Christian, I too would have issues supporting a sinful movement.

I remember when the late great Rush Limbaugh wore this "Deficit Awareness Ribbon" back in the '90's.



It torked the left BIG time.

"But nobody is forcing other people to support pride month."

The hosting of Pride Night has to a coordinated effort from behind the curtain, by people that we don't know. As mentioned before, the population statistics don't justify it. Kind of like airing the HIV medicine commercial during the College World Series. You can't convince me that is not an option intentional effort to put parents and kids into awkward and unnecessary conversations.
