A Jock's Analysis

Mr. Gary Sheffield, why are Blacks losing representation in baseball today?

"...Where I'm from, you can't control us. You might get a guy to do it that way for a while because he wants to benefit, but in the end, he is going to go back to being who he is. And that's a person that you're going to talk to with respect, you're going to talk to like a man..."

Mr. Sheffield, Mr. Sheffield, follow up question: Why are Blacks over-represented in prison populations and out of wedlock births today?

"...Where I'm from, you can't control us. You might get a guy to do it that way for a while because he wants to benefit, but in the end, he is going to go back to being who he is. And that's a person that you're going to talk to with respect, you're going to talk to like a man..."

Mr. Sheffield, why is the educational system serving the Black community so poorly?

"...Where I'm from, you can't control us. You might get a guy to do it that way for a while because he wants to benefit, but in the end, he is going to go back to being who he is. And that's a person that you're going to talk to with respect, you're going to talk to like a man..."

Mr. Sheffield, why are Blacks so poorly represented in the areas of political and business leadership?

"...Where I'm from, you can't control us. You might get a guy to do it that way for a while because he wants to benefit, but in the end, he is going to go back to being who he is. And that's a person that you're going to talk to with respect, you're going to talk to like a man..."

Mr. Sheffield, what about Condie Rice, Clarence Thomas, and Thomas Sowell?

"They aren't really Black where I'm from so don't display proper Black cultural attitudes. They are Oreos and Uncle Tom's and so can be controlled."

Thank you, Mr. Sheffield, for your enlightened analysis and commentary on racist White America.
