I guess if you don't live in Detroit, N.O., L.A. or D.C., the spectre of racism getting you can be a privileged fear.

Is it still racism if he lives in Chicago, DC, LA, etc and they get killed by other blacks? Because that's the real threat. And a more likely scenario for their death.
But, whitey bad.

This level of stupidity literally makes my head hurt. We're so fricking screwed as a people. Idiots have complete control of the narrative.

Most recently, jobless for two years after winning 97 games, one of the most iconic Black managers in history was asked to clean up the mess after a once-in-a-century scandal in Houston. 



Was he forced to take the job? And what did he have to do to clean up the mess? He just managed and answered questions from time to time in a significantly shortened season.


This is pathetic.

No there's fricking not. It's lies like this do FAR more damage than any taxi refusing to accept a black customer.

You have no evidence that statement is true yet here you are and this does 2 horrible things :


1. It pisses white people off because you're basically calling them racist


2. You are influencing black people that white people are bad and out to get them.

Both of these outcomes suck for public discourse.


frick you my friend.

So I can't get a job because I'm black. But I won't take a job because I'm black.

Good example he is setting for his son. How to be a p***y.

Where's the whiner talking about Hispanic managers?

FOUR black managers would match their percentage of the population but that is in the US.

About 2 would match their percentage in MLBs source pool

Nothing dishonorable about shoveling snow. Makes glanville look like an effete. How dare him classify me with a common snow shoveler.

Glanville saying that says more about HIM then the people he claims to rail against.
