[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]32 percent of Georgia is black.
51% of Atlanta is black.

85% of the crowd who would attend the All-Star game are paunchy white guys in sales/C-suite wearing khakis and their company’s branded Under Armor polo shirt.

...And, these "paunchy white guys" would have supported the businesses in Atlanta that are minority-owned and operated.  And, the hotels in the area. 
MLB screwed up.  They will probably end up having the damn game in a state with voting laws more restrictive than GA.  
It's a shame that they now have to research every possible site to be sure they agree with their voting laws.  Pathetic how politics has invaded sports to this point.  [/quote]

Nah, they would not have spent much money at black owned businesses. These guys fly corporate airlines, stay at chain hotels, eat at chain restraints, drink corporate macro brews, and wear their corporate logo-obsessed polo shirts. There is no virtuous cycle with these guys.[/quote]
