Anderson is the oppressed MLB star making millions of dollars a year. Get out of here


Yet here we are with your typical MSB 10+ page _______ sports guy cries racism (even though it was La Russo who actually said it explicitly) thread on a forum that constantly expresses disdain of talking about politics in sports.

quote:

I’ve never seen a “Let’s go Brandon” flag.



There was plenty of walking vendors uptown between Louisiana and Napoleon selling those giant flags and there were people waving them in the area.

There was also a vendor selling the flag and matching memorabilia st crawfish festival this year.

Why even play sports at any level if you can't handle some shite talk. Tim needs to stop now before he looks worse.

If you the catcher, knowing how butthurt Tim is, how are you not calling him Jackie. I know I am. Batting average will be single A before you know it.

I already thought it was dumb that Anderson considered that to be racist. But I didn't know the backstory about him calling himself this generation's Jackie Robinson. That context proves that Anderson is not only being soft, but also disingenuous. Because he knows exactly what Donaldson is referencing, and is choosing to play the victim, rather than acknowledge why Donaldson justifiably called him out.

This is probably correct, but I think it's possible that Anderson may not know what actual racism is, considering all the lame shite that passes for racism these days. I mean he was stupid enough to compare himself to Jackie in the first place.

Reading the story (I know, what a crazy concept), it's actually Tony LaRussa that said the comment was racist, not Tim Anderson.

Anyway, carry on with your victimhood, right-wingers.

Didn't see any frick Trump flags being waved around like old glory during Mardi Gras but my feelings are the same for those extremist too; if you have time to wave a frick (insert president) flag during Mardi Gras you probably live a miserable life.

Reading additional stories (I know, what a crazy concept):

quote:

"I don't think it was called for," Anderson added after New York's 7-5 win at Yankee Stadium.

Major League Baseball is investigating the incident and speaking to those involved. White Sox manager Tony La Russa called Donaldson's comment "racist," adding, "That's as strong as it gets."

Asked how he heard it, Anderson agreed with La Russa's charge, saying: "Same, along that same line, yeah."


Anyway, carry on with your lies, progressives.

I have a vendor that we do business with who has "Let's Go Brandon" as the signature line on work e-mails. And I can only imagine he thinks himself clever and funny.

There are people who can, but you'll probably find their explanation to be bullshite.
