“You’re telling me I’m supposed to get excited about a Canadian baseball team and a team that spends more money than everybody else?” Jason said.
“Who the f— cares about either?” he added. “That’s why baseball sucks. You just buy World Series championships. It’s the dumbest thing in the world.”
“Everybody knew this was going to happen before the season,” Jason went on. “We just had a bunch of meaningless s— happen before it and then it happened.”
“So, yeah, no, baseball’s not getting my stamp,” he concluded.
Following backlash online, Jason took to his Twitter/X to respond.
“Guys, I love Canada, I have been bamboozled by our social team that failed to show the whole story. How could I not love poutine, maple syrup, and beavers!!” Jason wrote. “I was actually rooting for the Blue Jays in a World Series that I didn’t care about. Seriously, Canada is the best, I was just talking shit about not being personally invested of caring that the team that spent the most money and built a super team won the World Series. That’s it. I am a known Canada advocate and Ice Hockey lover.”
If you missed it, a few weeks ago Jason cleared the air about viral quotes about Bad Bunny‘s upcoming Super Bowl performance that he says are fake.
