Where is Selig to tell the players if they don't play for this reason if chosen they will be fined or suspended?
Go back to Mexico then, idiot
It does discriminate. It discriminates against criminals and sends them back to where ever it is they came from.
Has anyone polled the Jonas Brothers, KC & the Sunshine Band, former contestants on the Gong Show or Flo from the Progressive Insurance commercials? How about the GEICO cavemen, aren’t they immigrants?
IOW: “Illegal should never be against the law!”
Gonzalez sounds like he might be a racist. He definitely isn’t an American. He believes that it’s okay for foreigners to invade America.
2 Mexican players in MLB? That sounds low, but maybe Dominicans are better.
Did he speak out against the federal law prohibiting illegal aliens? The Arizona state law mirrors it on a state level. If he has a problem with the state law, he needs to be consistent and speak out against the federal law, unless he thinks that somehow violates the 10th Amendment.
Does that mean he won’t go to Arizona when the Padres play the Diamondbacks? Probably not, the All-Star game is a mostly meaningless game. Somebody should go start the Mexican Baseball Leauge in Mexico. I hope he likes the pay cut. LOL!!!
F him. He can stay home against the D Backs and lose his gringo dollars. Cant these players just STFU and hit the ball like the mindless freaks that they really are?
Gonzalez, who grew up in both Tijuana and a suburb south of San Diego
Then hop on a bus to Tijuana if you don;t like our laws.
Wow, tough talk from a ... a... baseball player. I guess that is what happens when one is too stupid to understand the AZ law is not discriminating.
Oh shaddup already.
Doncha just love these multi-millionaire entertainers telling the rest of us how to live and what our priorities should be?
I am sure Adrian will not only forfeit any money made playing in Arizona this year...but, really, he should pay back all money made in previous years in Arizona so he can clear his conscience...LOL
It is comical watching unions support continued illegal immigration considering how an influx of illegal labor depresses wages for their members.
Discriminatory? I’m sorry, what about that whole breaking the law thing? Minor details? As a long time Padres fan, I’m now very much for trading this guy. I don’t even care who or how much they get for him.
As for this whole boycott nonsense, I fail to see how MLB essentially punishing the Diamondbacks organization is at all effective.
Does he think we value his opinion?
So long, adrian
He hasn’t read the law. Shut up and play baseball.
But your FANS ($$$) support it about 20%. Good luck!
