Default Hank Aaron Being His Usual Racist Self

Aaron is complaining that the Astros are too white - need more blacks. I wonder if he protests NBA games because they are too black. I'm getting sick of these ignorant attitiudes.

I'll start with 2.

1. His view is hardly "racist".
2. Walk a mile in the man's shoes before you decide that he's a "racist".

My definintion of racist is using race as factor in making decisions - not necessarily hating some race.

I never spent years of my life opening letters that said, "Die, Niggr, Die! Dont shoe up at the game tonit or il tak you out with my rifl."

So I'm cutting Hank some slack on this one.

then the word you're looking for is racial. you called him a racist, in fact, "his USUAL racist self"; you knew exactly how strong and loaded and negative that word is, don't try to bs your way out of it.

The Astros just had their most successful season ever and he's criticizing their scouting department. Fantastic.

I hadn't heard it reported before this. It's definitely extraordinary.
