YOU MAY BE RIGHT, I MAY BE CRAZY...



You may be right
I may be crazy
Oh, but it just may be
A lunatic you're looking for
Turn out the light
Don't try to save me
You may be wrong for all I know
But you may be right
Bill Joel - You May be Right



It seems to me that Gary Sheffield was raked over the coals pretty good for these comments he made about Latin players being easier to control than black players a while back. Maybe somebody owes Sheff an apology. HAHAHAHAHA.

Comments not meant to be ’derogatory’ toward Latin players, slugger says

updated 7:52 p.m. CT, Tues., June. 5, 2007
ARLINGTON, Texas - Detroit Tigers star Gary Sheffield insists he meant “nothing derogatory” toward Latin players when he said Major League Baseball found it easier to “control them” than blacks.

-------------------------------------------
But now after the story broke about the FBI investigating numerous major league employees skimming the bonuses of many of these players, it seems as if Sheff's comments are not nearly as crazy as they were portrayed by MLB's lackeys in the media.

Where is the media's self-righteous indignation and desire to protect the integrity of the game when said integrity is now being soiled by management? You won't see it, of course, because said media is in bed with management. Remember the old saw about not taking a dump where you eat. It's not a good idea.

I feel the same about the story that broke regarding various members of management being involved in gambling, another story that is being quietly investigated and minimally reported, again because it's management soiling the integrity of the game.

Oh Mr. Selig, you have a call on Line 2, from a Mr. Stern regarding public opinion manipulation and damage control. He said he'll send the Donaghey case file right over for you to review. He said good luck and don't forget to use your friends in the media to spin the story. He said he can teach you how to spin those boys like a top if you need to.
