                  i read romney was going to put an end to allowing all those latin players taking over AMERICAS GAME. time to get the sport back to where it needs to be.

                      really though.

                      there just are not many actual american black mlb players anymore for multiple reasons.

                      Martin is half back though right? that counts as a full black imo

                            True

                            That's same logic as Obama being a black president. It works here too I suppose.

                              Being a MLB catcber requires as much smarts as it does athletic abilities. You have to understand certain situations and call ball games.

                              Blacks are not capable or interested in these things.

                                    Most of the greatest players in the game are Latin.

                                    Besides Verlander, most whites can't hold their own to Latins really.

                                          A lot of black people choose other career paths.

                                          Doctors, lawyers, teachers, goodwill ambassadors, etc.

                                                  You white guys worry too much about black people.

                                                  Wonder why??

Most scoff at risk taking activities. Think about it. How many blacks in downhill skiiing, downhill mountain bike racing, rock climbing, nascar, bobsledding, just to name a few. I have black friends and black family members...they will agree with me on this.
