Fed Up Canadian
The Los Angeles Dodgers have reached a new low in living up to their name. A “Dodger” by definition is a shifty or sneaky person who lies and tricks their way out of fulfilling an obligation. We’ve all heard the term “draft dodger” to mean someone that went to some lengths to avoid being drafted into the military. In Charles Dickens’ “Oliver Twist” a very skilled pickpocket was known as the “Artful Dodger.”
The Los Angeles Dodgers have failed to fulfill their moral obligation to fans that have followed the team for decades. They have “dodged” the responsibility of standing up for American values and instead have gone woke, by folding to a small vocal mob of misfits, that the majority of rational Americans find repulsive.
A group of pornographic gay and transgender drag queens
A group of pornographic gay and transgender drag queens, that go by the name of The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence were invited to the Dodger’s 10th annual Pride Night that is scheduled for June 16th. The group was scheduled to receive a “Community Hero Award” for their work in raising money and awareness for marginalized people, such as AIDS patients and unhoused queer and transgender youth.
I feel the need to interject some thoughts here. First, I find it ridiculous that any major sports franchise feels obligated to hold a “pride night.” There are so many larger and much more worthy groups that should be celebrated before such a small and controversial group is placed in the limelight. Second, for all of the overblown, glowing reviews of what this group has accomplished, if you look deeper, you will find that it isn’t anything on the scale that it is being trumped up to be. Also, they are doing it at the expense of the Catholic religion. By dressing hideously as nuns, that alone is insulting, but their actions are vulgar. On their website their motto reads “Go Forth and Sin Some more!”
Anyway, after immediate backlash from Catholic priests, organizations such as Catholic League and Catholic Vote and some conservative politicians, such as Senator Marco Rubio, who wrote to the MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred, the group was dis-invited.
