Yuli Gurriel did something profoundly stupid during Game 3 of the World Series on Friday night. After hitting a home run off Los Angeles Dodgers starter Yu Darvish, who is from Japan, Gurriel returned to the dugout, held his index fingers to the outer corners of his eyes and pulled to narrow them, mimicking Darvish. Major League Baseball will meet with Gurriel before Game 4 on Saturday, and if the league intends to stay consistent with its message of inclusion and follow past precedent, it will suspend Gurriel for the action.

Funny that only white liberals, like Passan, seem to care about these things.
Is Gurriel ten years old? How idiotic.
When I first skimmed the headline, my mind registered, “Uri Geller.”
“I fly ball a house run!
I’ve always been amazed at how many darker Hispanics have no idea that some “white” people speak Spanish; don’t they notice the “white” Hispanics that often rule their countries? Vicente Fox comes to mind immediately, but also many in the countries in the “southern cone” (Argentina, Chile, Uruguay) have large numbers of “whites”.
What's happening is that people who can't handle leadership or decision making in a complex society have way too much sway. Sports are a mirror of what's happening in all aspects of our lives.
The situation that I'm appalled with is the NFL owner being chastised for saying "the inmates are running the asylum". These loudmouths who are appalled by that can't handle analogies. They can't voice their objections with humor and a spirit of cooperation. It's about a diminishment of the thought process.
Funny when I went to school we were all racist and did not know it...
We all got along played sports...it was are parents that were racist...
We had names for everyone...and we all laughed..now you can not open your mouth
Better to know what someone thinks of you than have him hide it..
Go back to comedy in the 1950s everyone was a target and we all laughed even at jokes about us..
Freedom of speech. Professional ballplayers are constantly heckled from the bench. They are able to ignore in order to focus on the game. Liberal pansies love to quell freedoms related to speech and culture. However, liberals have no problem promoting what they consider racist speech towards conservatives.
It was a juvenile stunt. Give him a stern talking to. He’s already apologized.
America is absolutely full of names from all over the world but Japan is not:
let me tell you the name “Yu Darvish” is more rare in Japan than hen’s teeth.
can anyone tell me what’s going on..?
how did he get that name..?
that’s really, really weird.
I think he might be trying to send a non-verbal message -
Next time he comes up to the plate one of the Dodger pitchers puts a fastball in his ear while the umpire pretends nothing happened.
Right. Big deal. Let them all handle it at the personal level. I couldn’t care less about a little mocking.
The TRUTH abounds !!
ANY and ALL sports organizations need to set very specific rules against what these supposed “stars” and athletes have been demonstrating in “negative” ways. Athletes have been portrayed as role models for our youth and one can easily see that what they project to the youth only serves to create more like themselves particularly since kids mock what they see as acceptable. Well kids, I have news for you, it is NOT ACCEPTABLE and needs to be curtailed by the leagues these athletes work for.
In the old days they would just let the players take care of it. They’ll throw at him and he won’t get another hit in the series.
Certainly didn’t post the way it was proof read...odd!
This story shows how STUPID the #BLM is. Blacks-killing-Blacks is the REAL News. It is their SLAVE MASTERS Hill-Billy Clinton (Hillary/Bill), Barrack Obama, and Al Gore.
And, of course, the LAME-Stream-Media uses Blacks as their Uncle Toms. Who is the Lame-Stream-Media:
ABC/CBS/NBC/ little CNN /WaPo/NYTimesa
It looks like Little CNN
is starting to disappear...
