22. And this won't be a one-time super spreader event.... it's every single home game

MLB Commissioner Manfred screwed up royally by allowing this happen.

He also didn't handle the All Star game decision very well. While I of course totally support to move the game out of Atlanta he was silent on this issue until after Georgia passed the voter suppression law. He should have been making public statements before the Georgia GOPers voted for voter suppression.

Well, I guess we'll know in 2-3 weeks if this was a really bad idea... VarryOn Apr 2021 #1
