Look forward to Brian Kemp and Greg Abbott pretending to be baseball fans again now that it’s a Braves-Astros World Series

Following the Atlanta Braves’ Saturday night win over the Los Angeles Dodgers to clinch the NLCS to take on the Houston Astros in the World Series, it’s clear now that Republican Governors Brian Kemp of Georgia and Greg Abbott of Texas are headed to a bit of an awkward position given their angry meltdowns at Major League Baseball for relocating the 2021 All Star Game from Atlanta to Denver in protest over Georgia’s new voter suppression laws. Kemp’s rage over the move in April is well documented, but even Low Energy Greg got in on the action with his angry cancelation of a first pitch appearance at the Texas Rangers’ home opener in protest of the MLB’s protest.

So what does this mean for the long tradition of mayors and governors getting into good-natured bets with each other over the outcome of pro sports championship battles between their respective cities’ teams? For Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms and Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner it’ll probably be something normal and anodyne, like the loser mayor has to wear a jersey of the other city’s team at a press conference. But Kemp and Abbott’s bet ought to be more interesting. Like maybe the loser has to write an even more excessive voter suppression bill and send it to the winner’s state, or show up at a predominantly Black church in their state – without any security accompanying them – and tell the congregation that they should be able to show ID when they vote if they also have to show it when they get on a plane. They probably won’t agree that the loser has to publicly apologize for they threw in April. That’s too harsh of a punishment.
