Oh come on. No one has to meet the man to know he was a racist. And the fact he was born in N.Y.C and raised in Detroit doesn't mean s***. The north has plenty of ignorant jackasses too. Yawkey may have not been racist but the signs point to otherwise. Why else would they be the last team to integrate, and once they integrate they would consistently field a team with very few minorities and consistently trade away their good minority players after just a few seasons? There is more than that. Just read about it. Take a minute and read some actual information.
In fact, why am I even explaining this? Anyone who isn't an idiot or a bigot themselves knows about this teams history and the part Yawkey played in its racism. I really cannot believe your post. It's just... ridiculous.
