I think the fear in doing that would be a team (say, Everton) getting swiftly punished for pushing/breaking rules while another team (City) piles up charges and everyone solemnly acknowledges maybe they’ll do something someday about this, and nothing happens.

This is what I get for being a Liverpool fan who was pretty neutral on TAA leaving for Real Madrid on a free.

Oh I know (interleague rules on frees and all) but I don’t trust that Miami 1) wouldn’t find some way to get him other deals or 2) found some other loophole like they already have.

I got what you mean, capital-A Atheism, or Reddit/New Atheism.
I’m absolutely an atheist but after a stint in those groups I bounced out pretty quick. Secular humanism fits better for me *and* is pro-something.
