I don't know if this is good or bad news to you, but I just saw a screen blurb that Maine has been put on the 15-day with shoulder fatigue. I was thinking about watching the Mets series, but now I don't think I'll make the effort. If I'm not doing anything else, I'll turn it on, otherwise, screw it.
so who were the villains for the yankees this series.....in no particular order....Jeter, Damon, Swisher, Cano, Burnett, Charlie Chan, Arod
we were joking about the racist shit befre...and I was joking. But something just dawned on me..actually hit me like a ton of bricks...Is there a team in MLB that puts out a whiter lineup than the red sox??? 1b Youk 2b Pedroia ss green 3b lowell(cuban but very white) Bay, Baldelli and drew in the outfield and varitek behind teh plate hahaha seriously-very odd. Is Theo the anti-minaya?
It has actually come up that a reason he wanted to get rid of Manny was because he prefers boring white guys as players. The pitching staff is fairly diverse, but the lineup is pretty white.
Now we all know that the classic american negro is a dying breed but every team still has at least a couple of reggie johnsons or malcolm jeffersons....not the Sox boy...New England is like Europe. They dont exactly celebrate the Claudell Washingtons of the world up there now do they?
I can't even think of the last "real" black player they had. Troy O'Leary maybe? Tom Gordon? EDIT: I'm an idiot... Coco Crisp.
seriously whatever happened to the Eric Davis, Barry Larkin and dave winfields? All the "black" players are latinos and the rest of the league is white or yella
There was a story about this earlier this year. Apparently a lot of black kids are gravitating away from baseball and toward basketball and football.
