Is there anything that is not related to race with this guy?

He also says that he never took steroids because "the bottom line is steroids is something you stick in your butt -- period."

Well, the with the thing about Latinos vs. Blacks ... he was kind of right if you think about it. He worded it in a terrible way, but I understood where he was coming from. This right here just seems out of the blue. He does have a lot to say though, and it really is annoying.

Sheffield has got to be the most racist baseball player -- period.

Huh? Not really. He just acts like a victim of it. That doesn't make him racist.

 

I mean, it's possible that he is. I'm pretty sure he doesn't hate people who aren't black though. I can't recall an instince in which that was the case. I'm just saying that this right here doesn't make him racist.

Hes still got nothing on old Ty Cobb though haha....what a dirtbag.

I mean, maybe he is. I'm pretty sure he doesn't hate people who aren't black though.

 

This is also true, and the truth is....hes always been like that everywhere hes been. Hes been a problem on every team. Theres a reason why such a great player has bounced around so much. Seven different teams in 20 seasons.

Yeah. He's a dick no matter where he is. It's a bit extreme to label him a racist though. Cobb was a racist dick, but a hell of a player. Sheffield's a hell of a player too, but he's only a dick. Not a racist dick.

 

But then again, I don't know of any racist instances with him. It's possible...but as far as my knowledge goes, I haven't seen/heard anything that would make him a racist.

[SCM33]

Yeah I wouldnt say racist. He is very opinionated about topics better left unsaid. I guess that makes him more judgemental/prejudice.
