Ty Cobb was NOT a racist. He openly cheered Major League baseball bringing in black players.

Money quote: "And far from being the most notorious racist in baseball history, he was an early and vocal supporter of integrating the big leagues."

I think the “Ty Cobb racist” was started by a sportswriter that Cobb was feuding with.

Agreed. We know it but it won’t matter to these people. Wasn’t it that drunken slob author that got all that started? Al Stump?
