Josh Donaldson called Tim Anderson "Jackie"
At the heart of it is when black people communicate their experiences, or perception of, and other folks that don't know what it is like to be black other than to imagine, then proceed to tell black people that black people don't understand, or are lying, or are wrong. That's very dismissive and arrogant, and if you ask me, reveals disdain. Personally, Josh Donaldson may be a racist, but his biggest driving quality is that he is a douchebag that instinctively knows how to troll. I think Timmy may have overstepped when he compared himself to Jackie. But I also read his comments, and found them to be very reasonable comments. That's what Donaldson did, try to invalidate Timmy's feelings because for him, trolling is fun, and that will cause people to fight a troll occasionally.

Too much for what? I don't know if it was racist or not. But what has been thrown around way too much the last few years is the stuff where other people tell black people not to be offended, or that they don't understand 'tone'

I will be surprised. Sure, a few isolated dopes will scream it all day long. But a chant would require mass stupidity.

Sox close to signing Juan Uribe Jr
There seems to be zero information on this player other than the little tape we have seen from HG. But I support signing all the Jrs.

Im missing some context on this story? Don’t get it from JDs perspective.

On the body language watch, I wasn’t convinced when Vaughn did the Sox’ lil fist bumpy thingy on his single earlier. Ozzie and Big Frank are still right.

Yesterday. Oh I believe, in yesterday. Well, the day before yesterday.

Glad to see Dallas has pride
No. His shutout innings only give him the opportunity to pitch again on the MLB level. Which should never happen.

just out of curiosity, why would Vaughn be in RF and AJ in LF?- TLR 2022 Thread
I think everyone is actually comfortable. Too comfortable. Which is not to say that everyone should be fired and traded. It means there is a very relaxed atmosphere on the SS. And I don’t believe anyone has a reason to worry about their places in the lineup or on the team. That’s a breeding ground for complacency. TA being the most recent example- Menechino is movable
I think this team is in a bad headspace. Chirping at media is a symptom. And they are in a bad approach to the game. Walks at the bottom of the league, yet don’t hit. Manager has crazy lineups. No accountability. Jerry Reinsdorf is enabling it all, and the dysfunction will continue with or without the hitting coach. There has to be competent leadership that know what to do, and that’s not going to get fixed apparently- AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!
When a pitcher just knows how to pitch like Cueto, much different look than stuff guys like Velasquez- Menechino is movable
The Sox will come around to a certain extent. But to a certain extent, the FO was very overconfident in the offseason. Arguably the signs were there for them not to be.- TLR 2022 Thread
I am on a rampage tonight, sorry. Can we change the thread title to…. TLR 2022 Hot Seat Thread? - 5/19 Sox @ Royals | 1:10PM CT | Velasquez vs Hernandez
