Even if it's accurate, won't nobody believe you and you've got very little credibility, so just keep it to yourself. And he didn't even give real examples. I respect the dude and liked him as a Yankee (unlike a lot of you bitches), but that ***** gotta zip it. |

This kind of sh*t is exactly why Sheff has the rep he has. He's a GREAT player with a tendency to put his foot in his mouth and make remarkably stupid comments! |

You got that right. I have been in Sheff's camp all along and even the other day I was thinking how stupid the Yankees have been to let him go. I have now reversed that thinking and hope that he just retire from baseball. I would like to know how Willie Randolph feels about the Yankees and Torre.... |

And he hit a Grand Slam last night. Am I the only one who's noticed that every time he goes running his mouth he gets hot? He was hitting like .250 when that sh*t about Latin players came out. He's over .300 now with 22 homers. Just like when he was slumping with the Yanks and the Mike Cameron trade rumors started, and he gave himself a no-trade by threatening to suck. He got hell hot after that. Maybe sh*t-talk is his motivation; his proverbial boot in the ass. I'd still take him on the Yankees. It's not like Abreu has been tearing up the bases (Sheffield might have more steals) or playing good defense. And this team could use another right-handed power bat right now. The #2 home run hitter has 1/3 as many as A-Rod. They went into the season expecting the power to be supplied by A-Rod and Giambi, who's been inconsistent and injury-prone as f*ck for the last FIVE years. Also, remember when Mondesi called Torre racist? That's multiple allegations. Neither has credibility (or good judgement), but there might be some truth to it. C'mon, which Italian who grew up in Brooklyn in the 1950s don't hate the moulinyans at least a little bit? |

I was just about to ask why BAS has that faggy censorship of racial slurs. I guess you'd written ***** first and it came out all stars. Bullshit. I can't even say nigge® on here. Rob, that sh*t is stupid. |

I would dismiss this as stupid bullshit in as fast as it would take me to hear the words "Mondesi and Sheffield". Under normal circumstances Striz I would totally get that, an I-talian from Brooklyn growing up in the 50's and not being down with the Moolies. But Torre has been around baseball for waaaaaay too long to have there be any real race issues coming form him. If there was, we would have heard about it a long time ago and it would have come from other people not named ' Mondesi and Sheffield.' And you are 100% right, Shef needs a sh*t storm to be productive. He is a quintisential ' Me against the world' kinda guy. He's gotta get himslef worked up and thinking people are out to get him or disrespecting him and then he gets hotter than a mufukka when he's all pissed off. I'm glad he's gone. I dont give a sh*t what he's hitting. The guy is a f*cking cancer always running his mouth. There is a reason the guy has hall of fame talent and has been on like 9 f*cking teams. :rolleyes: |

I said it kinda jokingly. I don't know if he's racist, but I'd lean 70/30 that he's not. Although it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't particularly like darkies. Hell, I think most white folk, even non-racists, dislike us at least a little. Sheffield wasn't a cancer. I think fans/media overblow how much of an impact one guy's sh*t-talk has on a team. When Sheffield popped off, it had no impact on how Jaret Wright pitched. It didn't make Mussina any less of a man. It's not the reason Giambi would get hurt and suck for 4 months of the season. "It's a distraction" but how much? If they ask Jeter about Sheffield's comments, all he's gonna say is, "Well, that's Gary. Ask him" and be about his business. And if one teammates comments have any impact on what happens on the field, I'd blame his team for being weak-minded whores who lack focus. This team would probably be 5 or more wins better if he was still here. When everybody on the team has like 5-6 homers, a guy on pace to hit over .300 with 40 homers & 115 RBI would help. And all I care about is wins. f*ck who you like. If you can help my team win better than the other guy, you're who I want. |

I agree Strider.....but unfortunately, perceived or otherrwise, Sheff tends to alienate himself from management and front office people a bit too much. I think the guy is a tremendous player....but he does piss me off with some of the sh*t he says....it shouldn't take away from him as a player, but you know it does. |

We'd be much better with Malcolm Sheffield here than Abreu. It's just one of those things. You don't appreciate what you got until it's gone. I didn't even really mind him leaving. I just thought it was dumb trading him in the league to a playoff team. |

When Strawberry started crying and thanked Torre at the '99 parade was Torre a racist then? Sheff is a buffoon and a race baiter. When the Tigers refuse to sign Sheff after his contract is over and he's 42 years old I'm sure he's gonna bitch about them just like he did with the Brewers, Padres, Marlins, Dodgers, Braves and Yankees. |

You can’t write it b/c the NAACP just outlawed it. :D One-by-one, Willie’s managing style is identical to Torre’s. BTW Yogi was at Shea to honor Ralph Kiner. |

The Mets have a kid Lastings Milledge who could be the heir apparent to Sheffield. He’s consistently pissed off the FO and is mentioned in every trade rumor involving the Mets. Last year he was almost gone in a trade for Oswalt that fell through. The kid supposedly had sex with a under-aged girl (I think she was 15) when he was in HS but charges were dropped or never made. When he was brought up last year he pissed off the veterans and Willie by coming late to the ball park, jogging around the bases and after he hit his 1st major league hr he high-fived the fans sitting on the 1st base side when running out to the OF. During the off-season he started his own rap label and his song “Bend Your Knees” really pissed off the Front Office. Some people say he will be a cancer in the club house. But he has Sheff’s type bat speed and when he makes contact the ball jumps off his bat so he could be a steal for some team in a trade. |

I just read today that Kenny Lofton agrees with Sheffield. He wouldn't go into detail, but he said something like, "Gary knows what he's talking about." That's three. That's it, Torre's a slave owner. That big-nosed, God Pigeon/Droopy, Master Detective-looking guinea twat. :fyou: It all makes sense now. The Yankees got rid of Sheffield and replaced him with Abreu, a ****, because Torre could control him more easily. Same thing with Cano for Womack. |

Lofton was sh*t on the Yankees as was Womack. No surprise that they were called out on the carpet. |

Maybe Torre just hates jerks. Was he racist when he started Charlie Hayes over Wade Boggs and Cecil Fielder over Tino Martinez in the 1996 World Series? Ask Tim Raines or Darryl Strawberry about Torre. I couldn't care less what Sheffield and Kenny Lofton have to say. |

This is exactly what I was going to say. Add Chili Davis to that group as well. I often defend Sheffields little rants because even though he's a dick, he always has a point. In this case though he's comming off looking like one of those black guys that cries racism whenever something doesn't go his way. |

They are addressing Gary ******field's comments on YES right now, and they are being politically correct as hell. I hate Torre, but there's no need to defend Torre, almost giving Malcolm's complaints any kind of credibility. Either just use the comments on air as a way to belittle and insult the retardation and obvious racism on Sheffield's part or don't give the ****** any attention whatsoever. I hate society. Always on the defensive and pussying around. Selig should suspend him 20 games. False accuasations of racism and those sh*t remarks are bad for the league, bad for society in general, and shouldn't be excused. |

I'll take it a step further.....I believe Sheff and Lofton were treated differently....but not because of their skin color.....because of their reputations as bad seeds! Right or wrong its the way of the world. You live by your big mouth...it gets you in trouble sometimes....or you get canned when the opportunity presents itself to your superiors.....thats not racism...thats life. |
