Paul Klee: Take it from a Denver guy: Atlanta didn't deserve MLB stealing away All-Star Game

Apr. 11—DENVER — The people in charge now are not doing what they say they're doing. They're doing the opposite of what they say they're doing.

They're hurting the people they claim to help.

Take the MLB All-Star Game stolen from Georgia and gifted to Colorado. Perfect example. The same week Major League Baseball appeased scaredy-cat billionaire corporate types by moving the All-Star Game out of Georgia, The Masters conducted business as usual — in Georgia. CBS, ESPN and the event's various corporate sponsors got their golf tournament, and Atlanta's and Cobb County's working class got the shaft.
