Torii Hunter: Other players with black skin aren't black

Maybe Torii should build some inner-city baseball diamonds and sponsor some city leagues, and try to steer some of the African American youth away from basketball and football?

You wouldn't know a "race-based post" if you fell over it. My criticism of the Black Caucus is of their behavior, not their skin color.

Apparently this isn't a random problem:

In 2006 the NAACP met with, then Braves GM John Schuerholz and demanded that the Braves field a team with more African Americans so that the team matched the racial makeup of the city. Players like CF Andruw Jones didn't count because apparently he wasn't "really black" ?

Interesting how the people who call everyone else racists are the ones who are obsessed with race. :ohwell:
