Even Tiger doesn't consider himself 'black.'

Indeed, he's only 1/4 black - and more Eurasian, and white and Native American.

I remember how he declared that he was just "American". I always admired him for that. But he's just a little too ornery for his own good.

I’m all for banning the DH, but the players’ union would never allow it.

I grew up an American League kid (Yankee fan). So I'm used to the DH. You are right that the players union wouldn't go for it. And I don't mind that it's given some players a few extra years--George Brett, Paul Molitor, Eddie Murray, Wade Boggs (all hall of famers).

I also don't mind looking at DH as a diminished role player. The batting version of middle relief. It doesn't bug me that it helped a few guys get to 3000 hits, etc. They had fine careers. But you respec the guys like Tony Gwynn who played the field their whole careers.

NO. THE MEDIA RESPONSE IS TYPICAL “IN YOUR FACE” BY THE MEDIA CREATURES. THEY KNEW HE WAS A SLEAZE BAG AND STILL VOTED FOR HIM.
