Following the news that Major League Baseball stated that members of the San Francisco Giants violated the league’s rules by writing Bible verses on their pride hats, Dan Dakich unloaded on the league.
On his “Don’t @ Me” show on OutKick Tuesday morning, Dakich ripped the league for its messaging.
“Oh shut up! Isn’t it amazing? This is what we worry about in this country. This is the greatest country in the history of the world. If for no other reason, than this is the bulls–t that we have time to worry about,” Dakich said.
Dakich said that he understood why players wouldn’t want to wear the hat and had grown “really, really tired of having things thrown in our faces.”
“I’ve grinded through the minor leagues. I get to the big leagues, I can’t wait. This is awesome. I’m going to wear the black hat with the brown-orange trim of the San Francisco Giants. Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Barry Bonds. Are you kidding me? And you’re giving me one now. I’m wearing what? I ain’t wearing it. Or if I’m wearing it, I’m putting a Bible verse next to it because I don’t support,” he said, also telling MLB to “suck it.”
“Quit being so damn soft and demanding on people of your lifestyle. Live your life, baby. Enjoy the hell out of it. Hell, yeah. But quit being so damn whiny when somebody doesn’t agree with what it is that you live your life by another player,” he added.

“How is it hate? Now somebody wants to say, well, believing in God doesn’t mean you can’t be a homosexual, or other people can’t be homosexual,” Dakich said. “That’s for another debate. But how is it hate?”
Starting pitcher Landen Roupp addressed his reasoning for writing a Bible verse on his cap after the game, saying that the verse is about representing “God’s covenant.”
“It’s just about God’s covenant and a promise that He makes to us that, you know, His faithfulness and His mercy,” Roupp said to reporters. “That’s just kind of something I believe in, and I stand firm in that, and I’m thankful we live in a country where, you know, we have the freedom to believe what we want … and express what we want.

“There’s no hate at all. It’s just what I stand for, and what I stand in. I believe in God.”
