I don’t remember the whole story Ramon. I assume you can look it up. But quite a few years ago Cracker Barrel was sued for discriminating against gay people. I just remember reading about it. Don’t recall the details….sorry.
I agree with this, however I think it’s an issue that best dealt with via pocketbook sanctions. I do want the police to be instructed to not get involved in enforcing GBA ejections. Eventually Hank’s lawyers will make him cut out the GBA stuff.
So is everyone giving Castillo all kinds of love today for starting the big rally last night?
The Cubbies are just allowing the Phils to take the lead so they can break their hearts in the 8th and 9th inning again……I hope!
No it isn’t. It’s a violation of the federal discrimination laws.
so you would fight the good fight if you were ever at yankee stadium, ramon?
Incidentally, notice Cracker Barrel faced no legal repercussions because they fired the LGBT employees. Discrimination based on sexual orientation is not yet codified in law
In the first case the Civil Rights Act of 64 and in the second case the Americans with Disabilies Act.
Zod, I would never be caught dead in Yankee Stadium so question is moot.
But if by act of providence I am there, I wouldn’t start trouble during the song so not to disrupt the rest of the crowd. It isn’t fair to them to impose my own political beliefs in an obnoxious manner during the game just like it isn’t fair for the Steinbrenners to do the same. I would, however, go through appropriate channels to make my dissatisfaction heard.
I would most definately support someone if they wanted to take the issue to court though.
Of course this has nothing to do with the legal right of the Yankees to enforce rules during their events as long as the rules don’t violate anti-discrimination laws on the books.
My point is that it’s not a constitutional matter.
I think it is a constitutional issue. The act which the Yankees are enforcing pertain to an issue of political expression. Throwing someone out for walking during God Bless America isn’t the same as throwing them out for cursing, fighting or breaking other regular rules at most private establishments. Do most restaurants play God Bless America after the main course and then kick you out for leaving your table while it is played? The circumstances are rather unique to say the least…
god, the cubs suck, looks like we’re going to have to do this ourselves
I think Myers pitches 9. Manuel not taking a chance, I’d bet.
fuck howard
that was a bomb
that one however was just enough.
can’t wait to hear about the phils’ resillience later
roflUtleyandVictorino
go cubbies!!!
Manuel may be forced to go to the bullpen. Come on cubbies. One more hit and get him out of there.
No HR…just get hits!
please blow this
I called it! Go Cubbies!
grits are just kicking in for the cubbies
fuck dudes named reed, go play lax or some shit
What an idiotic swing.
I hate Cedeno. Make me eat my words.
The announcer is giving Romero far too much credit for that K.

DICKS!

roflromero

rollins getting his leadership on
I was just thinking that Zod….lol!
hahahahahahahahaha
what a fuckin tool!!!
OMG LOOK AT THOSE ANTICS BY JC ROMERO
DON’T FIRE UP THE CUBBIES BROSEPH!!!!!
Um Jimmy, when did Reyes ever run off the field acting like an ape after a big play.
Wonder if Jimmy was noticing Romero’s celebration.
romero, i mean
What heart!
You still suck, Romero. WTF was that announcer talking about? Romero was awful for the Twins.
that was really funny
Wow….he just made that catch.
what a competitor jc romero is
I hope Lidge gets clobbered. Where’s Albert Pujols when we need him?
someone poisoned the cubbies’ grits
Pelfrey is so nasty with that sinker.
But man this Marlins team can locate and zone in on the fastball…
I love Mike Pelfrey.
