The problem with the Black community is that 99% of their kids think they're going to be millionaires if they spend every moment out of school playing a sport.As we saw yesterday, those Negro Leagues were not considered professional Big League baseball.They were prohibited from becoming professionalsSo Blacks had more time to study and become professionals and instead chose instead to cry.What is most offensive of what Baseball did to black players is that this can’t be blamed on Southern Jim Crow laws.
There were no MLB teams in the South. Closest were Washington and St Louis. Cities like NY, Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit and Boston had significant black populations and intentionally chose to exclude blacks.
Actually they were professionals, just in a separate league.
Remember minor league baseball is professional as well.
They were prevented from joining the American and National Leagues.
Separate but equal was not equal
How many black kids do you know personally that think that?
