It might also be kind of a misunderstanding here. The phrase "disrespectful" has a much more harsh meaning for a lot of POC. It isn't just respect that is being talked about. Usually that phrase means something like, "I would have punched them if I could, but I can't". If you keep more mixed company, you understand what I am talking about here.

Also for the record, MLB win rules suck. No way should Graveman get the win there. He blew the lead. It should revert to Cueto.

Theeeeeeee Yankees suck!

Engel loves a fastball

Don't stop now boys

Oh thank you AJ!

Ugh.

Bummer is back

Kelly looked really sharp. Hopefully that last outing got him straight.

And now we bring in a guy who can't find the zone so far with 2 on. Geesh.

Apparently no one is warming up for the Sox.

You literally can't ask for more from Cueto. Great outing.

Aaaaand there it is.

Man I don't know how long the Cueto magic act will last, but I am here for it.

I can see how the home ump missed that, but how did the rest not help him out?

Probably 16ish to be in this international class.

He didn't say it. He didn't say it was racist, but he also didn't say it wasn't. If your argument is what was actually said, you are 100% wrong.

I would rather look for MIke Trout Jr., but sure.

He never actually said it wasn't racist. For someone who is saying they are going off of what was said, that was never actually said.

So no, got it.

So where did Tim say his previous statements were OK and not racist?

Tony won't allow it.

Out of curiosity, since you have appointed yourself as the bearer of the standards of racism, how many teammates need to say something. You have 2 white ones and a Hispanic one to start with. I would say TA has been measured because he knows that people are looking to destroy him on things like this because of his race and outspokeness. Because people are willing to put the victim on trial here because he didn't measure up to imaginary BS standards, instead of the actual problem in Josh Donaldson. It's almost like his teammates are looking to protect him from people who don't understand what is like to be black in America and are wanting to put TA on trial for daring to stand up to racist tropes without justifying it to everyone who doesn't care to understand why. Of course you haven't talked to TA at all either, yet here you are subscribing thoughts to him that are 180 degrees from his history and actions. And as to Donaldson, he doesn't have to have racist intent for his words and actions to have racist undertones. That isn't up to Donaldson, which is exactly the point.

This is 100% not true. There is absolutely no where that TA said this was OK. Just because he ignored it, doesn't mean he was OK with it. Victim blaming Anderson is trash.

Its the 2022 version of "know your place, boy". Same message, new words.
