I’ve been on the fence with my fandom since 2020, but I think this is going to be the public embarrassment to finally put me over the edge to drop my lifelong fandom.
Installing a statue modeled after a segregationist is objectionable.
Fuck these owners. Fuck this franchise.

> Created by noted Texas artist Waldine Amanda Tauch, the 12-foot bronze statue was donated to the City of Dallas in 1961 and stood at Love Field for nearly six decades. Its most recent placement was in the airport’s main terminal lobby.
interesting how they don’t mention why this historic statue is no longer at Love Field
I love the Rangers more than I love any other professional sports team but every damn thing this franchise does makes it harder and harder. Can we for once do something that makes us not an embarrassment to right thinking people please
Yikes
Brandon Nimmo really is the perfect Ranger
Well, that’s embarrassing. Sharing a town with Jerry Jones and the Adelsons, it’s impressive the Rangers org sticks out so much in terms of bad ownership decisions
But, you know, only liberals just can’t keep their politics out of sports /s
Texas gonna Texas.
Are there any other ballparks with statues of people who didn’t actually play or participate in baseball?
Fuck the Rangers.
Apparently the Rangers are fine with pride as long as it’s pride in segregation
>Today, with more than 189 women and men serving across our vast 254 counties, the modern Texas Rangers reflect the diversity, integrity, and professionalism you would hope to find in one of the country’s oldest and finest law enforcement organizations.
Uh-oh, they said the D-word.
Which franchise is the exact opposite of the Rangers?
– « diversity »
– literal segregationist
texas is beyond comedy at this point
I have a disease and there’s nothing they can do to make me stop loving this team but I accept and even invite the venom from every other fanbase. This ownership group fucking sucks.
Any team that hosts the Rangers in June and isn’t doing their Pride Night that series is simply dropping the ball.
A non-Baseball player getting his state at an MLB ballpark? Seems like DEI
What an embarrassment, I love this team but I hate the things our ownership does. I want a pride night. I want to not glorify racists. Every other team can figure this out, why can’t we?
I don’t understand the incessant need to prop up rapists, racists, and generally horrific people.
I’m not up to date on this history, can someone fill me in so I can be properly upset with the rest of ya?
This statue makes it look like the guy has a big ol’ boner when viewing from the side.
Let’s celebrate one of the most racist law enforcement agencies, ever! Promise us you’ll continue to not have a Pride Night while you’re at it, bumbling backwards hickfucks.
This is embarrassing.
Rangers continue to somehow compete with the Astros for most unlikable Texas baseball team
…… fkin Ray Davis
Another Rangers fan chiming in to say this is fucking stupid and embarrassing.
