Has social media killed home field advantage?

Nope. Baseball used to suck at home before they started winning at home, and social media hasn't changed****

If the saying "Any fool can condemn, criticize and complain...and most fools do" is accurate, then social media is the number 1 enabler of fools!

Combine these with trying to make sports two hand touch, can't break up a double play or play at the plate and you have the modern day fragile minded athlete. This indoctrination has infiltrated every aspect of American life and one particular group is pushing inclusion of all and rewarding winners makes the losers feel bad and hurts their feelings. Dismiss and ignore if you will but it's been happening since the 70's/80's and has snowballed into what we are witnessing today.

ETA I'm only in my early 30's but do spend some of my free time reading about the founders of the modern day liberal movement and can recognize the underlying intentions of their perceived "good intentions". Cloak your real intentions by tying emotional topics to your cause that you never really address or fix, and continue to blame others because nothing ever is fixed for the better. Simple really after you take emotion out of their agenda.

Spot on man! I'm a millennial but I was fortunate enough to grow up in a small town that stays 20 years behind the current pop culture. My dad was my my little league coach and if we lost instead of getting to go to Pizza Hut we got spam sandwiches
