Considering their Governor is a fascist who frowns on Gay Pride, it really isn't surprising the org let them still play. -- nm - Jovian Jun 6, 07:01 9
- the Governor cut millions of dollars to the team's charities after they did the gun control stuff with the Yankees last week -- nm - Beaker Jun 6, 07:03 7
  - It's very clear First Amendment violations (this + Disney), and I think even this Supreme Court would agree. But probably in a 5-4 decision. -- nm - Inigo Jun 6, 07:17 5
    - It's very helpful of DeSantis to specifically say it's retaliating for political positions. -- nm - Reagen Jun 6, 07:20
    - yep. but will anyone bring any of these things to court? nope. that's why he wins. he knows it too. his corruption will only continue to grow. -- nm - Jovian Jun 6, 07:20 3

        100%. -- nm - MDH Jun 6, 07:33
  - yes, they no longer have democracy in Florida. Its run by a fascist who learned better then anyone from the master. -- nm - Jovian Jun 6, 07:04
- oops, should have went under Krusty's post. -- nm - Jovian Jun 6, 07:01
Could we also knock it off with the camo uniform bullshit then? -- nm - Reagen Jun 6, 06:52
Fuck them and fuck the Rays for allowing them to not wear the patches. -- (link) - Krusty Jun 6, 06:35 [Backboard] 2
