Gary Sheffield on ethnic differences

[GaryG]

This is good. Sheffield explains why management prefers latin players to blacks. Ain't nobody gonna tell him what to do.

"you can't control us. in the end, he is going to go back to being who he is...
the things my race demands...I know a lot of players that are home now".
And in BBall the players decided to play ball and wear ties instead of "bling"!! What is the % of A-A's STILL in BBall?

Forgetting fior the moment how stupid this makes GShef look (HELLO --- he's a baseballer :bang: ), what a great copout for his black "brethren." All those reduced to card shows, high school asst.-coaching, shooting pool and/or hanging out --- hey, they insisted on being real men. Don't do them any favors, Gary. Don't speak for them, either.

Makes almost 11 million a year. He's got some nerve. The boss is mean to poor Gary. Perhaps if he humbled himself - say a Walmart greeter....

Wal-Mart Greeter:

A very loud, unattractive, mean woman walked into Wal-Mart with her two kids, yelling obscenities at them all the way into the store.

The Wal-Mart Greeter says "Good morning, and welcome to Wal-Mart. Nice children you have there. Are they twins?" The ugly woman stopped yelling long enough to say, "Hell no, they ain't! The oldest ones 9 and the other ones 7. Why the hell would you think they're twins - are you blind, or just stupid?

"I'm neither blind nor stupid", replied the greeter. "I just couldn't believe you got laid twice."
