Why did they discriminate against White, Asian and Hispanic boys? Eric Holder needs to investigate.

Why bother playing any more? Give them the win now, they clearly deserve it based on race alone.

Shouldn’t the government bus in some whites, browns and Asians to ensure this team has the benefits of diversity?

It’s been a great series. I was surprised by today’s outcome, but Nevada’s #1 pitcher didn’t start due to a shoulder. He did pitch later but wasn’t effective.

Congrats to Chicago. They earned it against a very good field.

A diverse group like Philadelphia and I guess unlike Chicago?

“With respect to baseball games, we try to take a position of neutrality,” Manfred said at Lamade Stadium. “I have to tell you a Philadelphia-Chicago matchup is pretty darn good. It’s so wonderful when people turn on their televisions and they see people from very different socio-economic backgrounds in a setting like this. When you have a diverse group like the Philadelphia group, it sends a message that baseball’s a wide-open sport.”

No racialist stereotypes, please.

Unless they’re about Whites, of course.

Find another thread for your point. This isn’t about that. This one’s is about segregation.

All black - wonderful, diverse, vibrant.
All white - racist, exclusionary, wrong.

Blacks will always languish in ghettoes until they are treated as equals to whites...by the government and its media.

I predict that South Korea will beat the (Chicago) Illinois team in the championship. However, if by chance I’m wrong, I’m sure zero will take credit for the upset.

I was responding to this:

“All black - wonderful, diverse, vibrant.
All white - racist, exclusionary, wrong.”

I have white children; I give a rat’s arse.
