It has been 23 years since John Rocker pitched vs the Mets after he made his NY comments

How many games would he be suspended for if he made those comments today?

"I just struck out your best player!"

Don’t forget he also called a black teammate “a fat monkey” in an interview with Sports Illustrated. This psycho would’ve gotten a lifetime ban in 2023 imo

Rocker was such an a-hole the leaders of that clubhouse- Glavine and Maddux- hated him

Chipper didn't care for him, either.

Maybe he didn’t know it was possible for people to speak more than one language

Which part of this is wrong?

I remember all the commotion he caused with his comments watching SportsCenter and seeing it on abc news when I was 13.

I hate the Braves, but I loved this guy.
Definitely my all-time favorite Brave
It a world where people are afraid go speak their mind, Rocker went full speed ahead, with no apologies
Anyone who tells the truth about New York is ok with me

None. But you’re leaving out a ton of offended people.
