You must wear the gay hat and you must not fix the gay hat by writing rainbow-themed Bible verses on it.
Yes, just when I thought professional sports couldn't get any gayer, the MLB is slapping the wrists of players who write Bible verses on gay hats.
(Slapping the wrists to try to make them limp, I assume).
Major League Baseball has stepped in to protect the sacred rainbow from the dangerous threat of Scripture. Sounds like satire. It is not.
During the San Francisco Giants' Pride Night on Friday, pitchers Landen Roupp, JT Brubaker, and Ryan Walker had the audacity to take the field wearing the team's special rainbow-accented caps with a little something extra written on them: Genesis 9:12-16.
You know, the part where God puts a rainbow in the sky as a sign of His covenant and promises never to flood the earth again?
But the MLB wasn't having it.
Major League Baseball issued a warning that similar behavior will not be tolerated.
'The writing on the cap violates our rules, and consistent with normal practice, we have warned the players about future violations,' Pat Courtney, MLB's chief communications officer, told The Athletic in a statement that Outsports first reported.
Sure, this is in the rules. You don't write on your baseball cap, although it's certainly been done before.
The Giants pitchers were trying to navigate between a rock and a hard place. The league wanted them to wear hats that symbolize gay sex and transgenderism, but their God tells them not to celebrate gay sex and transgenderism.
They tried to find middle ground with an innocent Bible passage about God's love for humanity and the gay-sex fans LOST THEIR MINDS.
In the future, instead of wearing gay hats, the players will opt out like Sam Hentges did and wear a normal hat.
This whole saga is very difficult for San Francisco, given their history of gayness:
The Giants were the first professional sports team to host a game that raised awareness and money for the HIV/AIDS epidemic with 'Until There's a Cure Day' in 1994. And in 2021, they became the first team to incorporate the rainbow colorway on their on-field caps for their annual Pride game.
Some notable comments:
The tides are changing, folks. The kids don't want to wear gay hats anymore.
And until we do a God night and put Moses on the hat or something, I don't want to hear any complaining from the Alphabet Religion on this one.
