Donaldson suspended one game, which every sane person on earth knows is ridiculous.
quote:

White Sox pitching coach Ethan Katz didn't think the penalty was enough.

"Just one game. We all saw his malice at third a week ago, then this comment with the ridiculous excuse that followed. What's the point or message behind a 1 game suspension? This is incredibly disappointing and plain frustrating,'' Katz tweeted.

Are the White Sox the biggest pussy team ever? His "malice" at third? These dudes are incredibly pathetic. The reason Tim Anderson is probably so "respected" in that clubhouse is because the clubhouse is filled with a bunch of losers.

I say ban all mentions of Jackie Robinson. Remove his name, all honors, the 42 bullshite and be done with it. That'll show 'em.

Yep. Donaldson is the type of guy you’d want your daughter to marry. TA is a race-baiting thug

Lol again you’re giving Josh Donaldson WAYYY to much leeway here. He lowered a knee at a sliding TA last week at third. It was a a hard play between two guys who don’t like each other. Donaldson is The same guy who accused Giolito of Spider Tack and then threatened to fight him in the parking lot last year.

There is a TON of history between Donaldson and the Sox. To suggest the Jackie comment wasn’t meant to be disprespctful toward TA after all the history between them is insane and any rational thought otherwise is because you’re completely delusional by the race concepts you disagree with in society. From a pure baseball standpoint is was bs on Donaldson…end of story.

Doug Granville says he doesn’t know what is offensive then says Donaldson was racist/offensive because he used Jackie to make Tim “more palatable”. Then says MLB needs to describe what is offensive but absolves Anderson of anything

I’m confused

Because he doesn’t like him and didn’t use a term or slur he deserves a game?

This was handled bad on all points

Joe Kelly got 7 games for frowning at someone. I’m not suggesting baseball has any fricking clue what they’re doing about pretty much everything. However, the people in here acting like Josh Donaldson is an angel in this situation are just a bit off

Of course it was probably meant disrespectfully. In no way is it racist though.

I’ve already said that I don’t like Donaldson. I can see everything here being true. It still doesn’t make it racist.

Nobody is saying he's an angel. It's pretty obvious that he can be kind of a dick or too intense at times.

We are just saying that calling Tim Anderson "Jackie" in jest after Anderson referred to himself as "Jackie" is not racist. And to call the comment racist, is soft AF.

Josh Donaldson seems like a massive douche and that's nothing new. Tim Anderson coming across like a soft little bitch is new (to me at least) and is disappointing.

The same commissioner who moved the all star game from Atl due to the passing of “voter suppression and new Jim Crow” voting legislation.

The commish needs to take immediate action and relocate the Braves out of the state; after this modern day reconstruction law caused record number early voting in this primary cycle!

I can give you others opinions on the situation, but its a waste of time. Just dont feel like going back and forth with people who can only see things from their viewpoint.


There are not opposing viewpoints in this situation. Donaldson was making fun of the pussy for calling himself the modern day Jackie Robinson. There is no alternate viewpoint. That is what happened.

Dude, of course it was meant to be disrespectful. ALL trash talk is disrespectful. Even your fellow Gator Tim Tebow who is genuinely a great guy would do the chomp in the faces of opponents. The only player I've ever heard of in any sport who would consistently give genuine compliments to the other team on the field is Andrew Luck.

That doesn't mean Donaldson's taunt was racist. It was, "Tim, you think you're Jackie Robinson? THAT'S funny. Okay then, Jackie..." If Tim had compared himself to any other player of any race for whatever reason (Jeter, Banks, Honus Wagner, Cal Ripken, Ozzie Smith... whomever), Donaldson would've taunted him with that player. He's a trash talker who tries to get under people's skin. And yeah, he's a complete tool who it seems like does have a history of wearing out his welcome in his own clubhouses.

But it wasn't racist. He shouldn't be suspended.

Thats your opinion. All you have to do is do a quick twitter search to see others opinions on the situation. I saw one person make the claim that the statement in itself wasnt racist but the fact that he chose to go at a black player made it racist. No I dont need a rebuttle to this and examples of other Donaldson encounters. Just stating something I read.

You need to update your talking points bc the NBA has been the least woke league (with the possible exception of NHL) for at least 2 years.

The NFL is hands down the worst.

I was born white but I now identify as black. Still in all, white lives matter.
