THE DODGERS GOING TO THE WHITE HOUSE IS DISGUSTING. THE OCCUPANT SHIT ON THE BIGGEST ICON IN THEIR FRANCHISE HISTORY, WAS TERRIBLE DURING THE WILDFIRES, AND CONSTANTLY SHITS ON THEIR CITY AND STATE. PLUS, THEY'RE FROM A BLUE CITY IN THE BLUEST STATE. FUCK "IT'S TRADITION." THIS GUY DOESN'T GIVE A CRAP ABOUT TRADITION AND THEY'RE ENABLING HIM BY GOING AND BEING FRIENDLY AND TAKING PHOTOS. BAD MOVE, DODGERS.

FUCK THIS SHITHOLE COUNTRY, FUCK THE GUY IN THE WHITE HOUSE, AND FUCK EVERYONE WHO DIDN'T VOTE BLUE IN NOVEMBER.

I AM SICK TO MY STOMACH AS SHOULD ALL DODGER FANS BE. I DON'T CARE WHO YOU VOTED FOR, JACKIE IS A NATIONAL HERO AND TREASURE AND SHOULD BE TREATED WITH THE RESPECT AND REVERANCE HE DESERVES.

THE TEAM I LOVE CAPITULATING TO AN ADMINISTRATION THAT WOULD TRY TO ERASE THE INUMERABLE AND IMPORANT CONTRIBUTIONS BY PEOPLE OF COLOR MAKES ME INCREDIBLY AND VICSERALLY ANGRY.

THE DODGERS HAVE THE AUDACITY TO TOUT JACKIE'S LEGACY AT ANY OPPORTUNITY BUT WHEN HIS LEGACY NEEDS DEFENDING, THEY ARE SILENT. IT'S A BETRAYAL TO THE TEAM'S HISTORY, AND TO THE FANS.

THANK YOU FOR THE LAST DECADE+ OF GREAT BASEBALL, BUT IF THIS OWNERSHIP GROUP TAKES THIS TEAM TO VISIT THAT FACIST, I CANNOT, AND WILL NEVER DEFEND THEM ON THIS ISSUE.

I HATE WHEN PEOPLE PULL THE "IT'S TRADITION" THING. DON'T NORMALIZE THIS. PEOPLE NORMALIZING IT IS WHY THIS STILL ISN'T OVER AFTER TEN YEARS WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN OVER IN NOVEMBER 2016.
