4/24 GDT Soroka vs Reds

[CrazyTrain]

racists really aren't scared to let their racist flag fly these days

lol... ya... today is nothing like the 60s/70s when all the racists only showed their racism behind closed doors.

[Hulavol]

i was impressed he was getting swing and misses on changeups down the middle...tells me it is a pretty deceptive pitch

Me too. He looks damn amazing.

[CrazyTrain]

Why are we still talking about this? Ozzie came out and said it wasn't about the money. As long as the players are happy shouldn't that be what matters?

Nah, people these days are far more interested in forcing someone to believe that they are a victim.

Reds announcer Chris Welsh just stopped in the Braves’ clubhouse to apologize to Ozzie Albies regarding the comments he made during last night’s broadcast


i think this is all that was needed here. people calling for his job on twitter were just a little bit extreme. very nice move by him, tho.

The PC police on social media are part of the problem.

100% class. I wish more people would do this. Just take a little accountability and make it right.

You make one false move and they will eat your ass alive.

Exactly. It wasn't a big deal. It was a stupid comment. He owned it, he apologized, it's over.

[Hudson2]

He was probably told to go apologize

[BeanieAntics]

He was probably told to go apologize

This is probably a little overly cynical. He probably realized his poor wording after the game and realized that he needed to apologize.

[Orphan Black]

Agreed. The "racist" tag gets thrown around far too easily nowadays.

Wow...I actually agree with this too. And people tend to mix up racism and discrimination as well.

[Super]

This is probably a little overly cynical. He probably realized his poor wording after the game and realized that he needed to apologize.

even if he were “told to apologize,” he didn’t just do an on-air “my bad” or write a little apology. to go to him personally and say sorry is nice.
