It would be interesting to see some of these characters in real life.

MSNBC is racists. Over the past year I've learned how racists the national media is. They love to keep mess going. Fox cnn msnbc the list goes on.

Conservatives love watching Al so they can have something to fuss about and use that to support their claim of Black leadership.

Getting back to this little league team. What a bunch of PUNKS those coaches are. Running up the score 43-10 in four innings. Teaching children poor sportsmanship.

I'm glad they were investigated. And I'm glad they lost their title.

MSNBC has awful ratings. Liberals generally don't cling to their talking heads like conservatives do to take their marching orders.

Honestly. NOBODY watches MSNBC. They are the LOWEST rated cable news show. If I went to my roof and screamed, more people would hear me than watching MSNBC.

We all need to love listen and learn from one another. There can't be any love given if there is no love for self. That's what is wrong with the racial climate in America!
So much for your claim that you are through exchanging with me huh?

So if I do not have your position clear please clarify it for me and we can have an educated discussion.

Did you not say:

"The reason why racism is being thrown into the picture is because some of the White teams have done the same thing if not worse to have the upper hand and never been called out on it".

And was that not shot down with the Georgia example? And again there was evidence, specifically the parents admitting they do not live in the city, that supported an investigation into the Chicago team. This was not a result of hate, racism, or the want to pick on a team because someone didn't like the fact that an AA team won. The followed up on this because there was a real reason to follow up. And as we have learned the follow up found exactly what was claimed: They Cheated! There was no evidence that would support an investigation into the white teams. If you have any evidence I'm all ears.


Did you not say:

'Is there a racist element or motive? I don't know but there is a possibility".

And what possible evidence do you have to support this possibility? You have none that I can see other than crying wolf, er I mean racism, whenever something bad happens to an AA.

Here we go again. There are many predominantly White teams who have never been called out on their trash. It has nothing to do with the Georgia team. From what I just read, the Georgia team had many infractions including the age thing I wrote about. There needs to be consistent enforcement not just when there is a championship. I don't the Little League Baseball is a racist organization! This is my second time writing this statement. If you don't want to comprehend what I've written it's your fault. I can't say that the push out of Evergreen Park was or wasn't racist. What part of this isn't clear?

Why should they investigate the other teams when there was no evidence to launch an investigation? Pretty sure I've asked this question repeatedly. I've asked if you have any information that would lead to a further investigation and you had nothing other than a claim you simply pulled out of thin air that the other teams could be dirty too, or "trash" as you called it. Please show me any evidence, anything at all, that shows that the white teams the Chicago team beat were dirty and then we'll talk about it.

They looked into Chicago because there was a reason. You are opening up that the possibility is racism in your quote above. I see no reason why that should have even been introduced as a possibility.

Can you provide links to articles about the teams who have never been called out on their trash?
