The Toronto Blue Jays suspended Yunel Escobar for three games on Tuesday after he wore eye-black tape inscribed with an anti-gay slur during Saturdays game at the Rogers Centre. The salary forfeited by Escobar during his suspension will go to You Can Play and the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.
Honestly its been a terrible experience in my life and career, Escobar said through a translator. Its something Im sorry for and something I wont do again.
The player said he was embarrassed by his actions.
It was just a joke, Escobar said through the translator. It was my idea but it wasnt directed at anyone in particular.
Escobar said he has friends who are gay and has nothing against homosexuals.

>>Or if you like that boring game where failing 2/3 of the times makes you a success.
Sounds like you were the fat kid in Middle School nobody wanted on their team.

Sounds like you were the intellectually challenged bully who used brawn over brains.
Because it worked for you then doesn’t mean it works now.
But everyone can see what kind of person you were.
I hire and fire asshats like you on a whim.
And no, I wasn’t the fat kid — that doesn’t make baseball any more less boring. Strawmen are what works for intellectual midgets like you.

It appears I hit a nerve. LOL.
Yo, Escobar! If you’re going to flaunt it then stand by it. Nothing worse than a sissy who succumbs to PC.......
You really have screwed up your tag, dumb.
Yes, I dislike bullies.
FR should also dislike bullies.
But your type are too stupid to understand how bad bullies are.
That is why I enjoyed firing your types.
Revenge is sweet, payback is a Mo’Fo.
Such a child you are.
>>You really have screwed up your tag, dumb.<<
It is the UI — I see the odd characters — they are supposed to be quotes (single and double).
I haven’t used quotes in the tag before. I’ll check with John on how I can have it displayed properly.
Do you disagree with the underlying point?
You had us fooled because you're sounding just like one............

After reading your mindless rambling on your homepage, I doubt you've ever been in a position to hire, let alone fire anyone as you claim.
But what the hey, the internet makes kings of us all...........lol!
And you continue to drag FR into the celebration of bullies.
I wasn’t fat (I was a gymnast) — but I was small and had difficulty seeing the ball into the glove.
So, we have people like you, like Al Bundy, who relive High School (I only went for 2 years and graduated early to be away from fools like you).
Like I said — it has been my great pleasure to use my brain for the quiet revenge on idiots and fools.
I have deeply enjoyed every single firing.
Sometimes referred to as the "Great white north", Canada is a country of a diversity. Canadians are known for their whimsical accent, and their love for an unusual dish called "Poutine".
lol!
He trolls for responses to his insults and gets his tutu in a wad when others respond.
What a man. /s

If his name was John Rocker, and he was white, and he wrote his message in English he would be done for the year. I think the punishment probably fits the crime but look what they did to Rocker.
