any front office that claims they can't make money marketing a home-run record needs to get out of the business of making money

the purpose of baseball is not to make money!

it is to preserve the dignity of our civitas

it is a social ritual which billionaires indulge in for purposes of prestige and ego

does it tho because it's not like the latino and asian population sprung fully formed from zeus's brow in 1985

the willingness is there in theory but it's not automatic nor has it become fully coextensive with racial groups in the us. there's clearly an inhibiting favor for many groups.

in Arizona whiteness will incorporate the (very few) blacks there if it serves to put down mexicans

ill bet Dakotans would hire black mercenaries if it was the best way to destroy the Reservations

theres a poo poo ton more acceptance afforded to asian and hispanic populations, than to the black ones. at least here in the east.

the american west deviates tho in some places due to the changing nature of immigration history in the region

everyones like "uhhh did we walk into a dance tourney or something im real confused right now"

imo wouldnt it be problematic for not-maori new zealanders to do haka? arent the maori poo poo upon like crazy

I think it's fine when it's a team-wide activity in a sport that's dominated by maori. Like it'd be weird if they just made the 2-3 white guys on the team go sit in the locker room for the duration of the haka.

But it would be problematic and appropriative if it was like a mostly-white golf team or something, sure.

note: I know practically nothing about new zealand and am just extrapolating based on U.S. race-relations + sports culture

excluding the region with perhaps the fastest-growing minority population seems like a pretty huge caveat, not to mention we haven't even gotten to how to think about black Hispanics in this framework
