For those who know what that symbolizes, flip on the Dodgers game tonight. I am proud of the fact that a fraternity brother and alum from my alma mater made it all possible. :thumbs2:

Hey 'Nuffster :thumbs2:
There are many reasons why there are so few African American players in baseball these days, but the one that makes most sense to me is that young Black men are more into playing basketball & football.
Of all the teams, the Atlanta Braves also do not have a Black player on their team. Go figure :confused:

...BTW, new Smallville this week...:buttrock:
