CINCINNATI — University of Cincinnati head baseball coach Scott Googins said Tuesday afternoon he supports the players who've started a petition to change the name of Marge Schott Stadium.

Googins said the Bearcats have discussed the petition as a team.

"To me, it's a great ballpark and we're very lucky to have it," Googins said when asked if the name should be changed. "To me, it should be a positive place. I want to make sure when people talk about our stadium that it's a positive because it should be."

Trump supports the end of Pete Rose’s banishment by a bunch of liberal elites. That would be enough to end that conversation.

OK, change the name of the stadium. But then you should give Marge Schott’s heirs the $2,000,000 she willed ... plus interest.

So now we need to rename any public place or facility, if such places are named for anyone who is not favored by the left.

Every place will have to be named for Obama, Harvey Milk, and if they want to push it, Che Guevara, Fidel, Chairman Mao, Uncle Joe Stalin.

sarcasm.....

I’m actually surprised they named the stadium after her considering her notorious racist history that’s almost as bad as Donald Sterling.
