Hmm I can see it on mine.
Makes what Michael Richards said look like Old Man River.
Then there's Mr. Bill, which would probably cause legal action by the NYC DA's office.

And the GOOD NEWS....
as of 231535, ALEXA through Amazon, was still playing ‘God Bless America’ by Kate Smith.
The memo must not have reached them yet....
(Then again she still insists she is NOT spying on me)
Saw a good one earlier that it would be nice if the Crowd at one of the games broke out singing it after the Anthem or during 7th inning stretch.
what are the allegedly racist songs?
and surely they were not only sung by Kate Smith?
does anyone even know what we are talking about
Even though I like both ny baseball teams (sorry, but I’m in nyc), I still liked this article because I thought it was absurd to ban Kate Smith. Even though I remember (as a NY Ranger fan), Philly playing her “God Bless America” before our playoff games. I saw her as a Philadelphia Flyers fan back then so I disliked her as a kid.
This fatwa against Kate Smith is less about putative racial transgression than it is about taking God out of the public square. Statists cannot tolerate faith or patriotism, and Kate Smith embodied both.
I want to know when the thug rap culture against whites will be banned?
What is baseball?
If they ban Kate Smith, then in order to be consistent, wouldnt the NY Yankees also have to ban:
1.) God Bless America the song being performed by anyone, after all Its composer Irving Berlin wrote many coon songs.
2.) The National Anthem, after all Francis Scott Key was a slave owner.
3.) The American Flag, after all John Ross, Betsys husband was a plantation slave owner.
?
great observation.
I was kidding of course but it would be intrigueing what baseball would be like with only a dozen or so teams remaining. Yankees gone Mets remain Dodgers gone Angels stay. Both Chicago and Bay Area teams kaput. Rockies but no Cards. Florida teams stay, Pennsylvania and Ohio teams all gone. It would definitely be a different world of baseball.
Ozzy’s “No More Tears” wasn’t about baby shampoo but a homicidal pedophile. Quite horrifying if you aren’t aware of Osbourne’s cheesy “Prince of Darkness” macabre sense of humor. Like these over-literal Democrats without humor looking for victim-hood windmills to tilt at.
