MLB's Ian Desmond, in a powerful post about racism and social injustice, opts out of the 2020 season | CNN

Major League Baseball player Ian Desmond is opting out of the truncated 2020 season. Coronavirus concerns factored into his decision, but so did the national reckoning with racism -- something Desmond says needs to happen within the league, too.

Last time I watched a game, Joe Hardy put one out of the park for the Senators.

Are there any bi-racial White men? If not, what exactly is a bi-racial Black man? Is it Black Privilege? Deep thoughts to ponder.

That barry guy made it popular. Forget the people that raised you and embrace the person that abandoned you. Kapernickel is another 1.

I do not recall any hero worship of Ian Desmond because this is the first time I've ever heard his name.

I saw the title of this post and jumped to the erroneous conclusion we were discussing Ian Anderson. My bad. There's just not enough people who remember the first 3 or 4 Jethro Tull albums anymore.

Wasn’t he loni Anderson’s father or am I thinking Garrick Utley??

The King won 99 races from 1970 - 1992. That's a lot of sucking.
