What a dumb thing to say, look at every roster in MLB not one is consisted of all Caucasians. Yes, the number of African Americans playing MLB is down but before Jackie Robinson Latin players weren't allowed to play either... their numbers are same but because of Mr. Robinson hardly does everyone look the same regardless the number on their back.
I dont mean to disparage the impact he had. And the game is very different. I just find it rather odd to celebrate diversity by having extreme uniformity. Additionally, I really hate the idea of all players wearing the same number... irregardless of the reason behind it.
