First they take Dollar Dog Night from us and now the Phillies have taken our First Amendment right to free speech after enclosing the visitors bullpen:

Bullshit! There’s no other way to slice it. Citizens Bank Park is going woke. Participation trophy, baby blue flag bullshit for winning the Wild Card, no cheap concessions for the working class Phillies fan, and now this. The staff sits in their ivory tower and just comes up with dumb idea after dumb idea. I’ve been trying to tell you they hate you for years now. They LOVE the corporate stiffs when they pack the ballpark in October and can sell merch that labels the place “four hours of hell.” They absolutely fucking despise the fans from April to September. The fun police strike again. Back in my day you could puke on a child and the universe let you handle it yourself.
Remember what they took from us. The Phillies are softer than Eddie Perez:
