Making generalizations about a racial group is pretty much the definition of
racism.

You Moron. Latin is a general term. There are more far more Latin countries than
Cuba and the Dominican, which are the 2 countries whose players have falsified
their ages. But you are too big a prick and too stupid to realize that. Go to
hell.

Perhaps you didn't mean to include a Latin ballplayers in your
"discussion". If this is the case, I suggest that you brush up on
your English language skills. This could help you better understand
the meaning of the sentence, "Latin ballplayers are liars".

They seem to have that female quality don't they?In that they're constantly
lying about their age..LOL!!! .I don't know exactly why maybe because they
spent alot of time in the past trying to get by with fake documents to get thru
the borders or trying to get help from HRS or medicaid?
Most everyone here is too complacent on this matter,but this is why our beloved
United States is so vulnerable.Ok,so it isn't right to call Latin players
liars.But I think Hoover is just a normal American that's just plain sick and
tired of it! We allow millions and millions of aliens into the our Country,a
big chunk of them with fake documents.It's not like they're walking around and
saying "I'm 27".Their documents are saying that they are 27,when in fact that
they are really 30 or 31.Other things are not truthful on those Documents

Black, Caucasian, Latino and Asian ballplayers have been lying about their
ages for years. Some, for good reason.
Liars do not come in just one color.
Ben is not the "idiot," HOOVER, you are.
If the "entire post" was not intended to be racist, why did you
mention "Latin" ballplayers only?
No one had to spin it into a racist rant ... It started out that way.

<snipped ... A sanity issue>
Black ballplayers lied about their age because so many were older
when the opportunity to play in the major leagues.
White players lie about their age because many don't mature until
they are in their mid twenties.
Asian baseball players lie about their age, hoping for a chance to play
baseball in the United States.
Latin ballplayers lie about their age for the same reasons.
Lying about your age is not new and it's not really news.
AND ... It is not limited to one nationality.
Interestingly enough, Rob Neyer brought this up.
http://espn.go.com/mlb/columns/neyer_rob/42798.html
So, yes, technically you're not wrong. However, to be fully accurate, your
subject should read, "Latin, White, Black, Jewish, Asian (and all other
ethnicities) Ballplayers are Liars."

Fine. *you* can go back to 1937 and watch baseball when the only players were
white Americans.
The rest of us will stay in the present and watch the best talent in the game do
their thing, regardless of what country they're from.

Fuck you, you lying sack of shit. You said "Latin". You are a racist. You could
have said Cuban or Dominican. You didn't. As far as you number of South Florida
Latin's being caught lying about their ages, why don't you post some details?
Why? Because you don't have any. You generalized Latins. Why don't you walk up
to some Latins, and ask them yourself. Then I hope one of them flattens your
ass.

I believe there were two black ball players that tried to pass as native
Americans, in the late 1800's, but were found out and forced out of
baseball.

There are many, many legitimate issues concerning immigration that we
need to address in this country, especially post-9/11. However, people
who feel that the mere existence of these issues gives them the right
to express racist attitudes are incredibly naive and very un-American.

Personally, I think we should put all left-handed people in jail.

It's quite simple.No one should try to use fake documents in these times! Look
at what happened in the Boston Airport today.They took in custody 20 people
found to be using fake documents.Some of you boneheads keep
saying....."well,black people lied about there age in the 1930's.....white
people lied etc...."
That wasn't the point! That IS NOT the point. The point is,if you try to get by
any system here in America with fake documents then you should be deported or
jailed.I guess I'm not making my point come out right,but this has to go for
everyone...black,white,Chinese,Cuban,Puerto Rican etc., and especially Arabic!
Yes....Arabic. A poll has come out after 10,000 Muslims were polled and well
more than the majority condemn us and think that no Arabs were involved in the
911 attack...LOL!!! I know my way of thinking will keep me and my family on
high alert while a bunch of you guys will be living in lolla land.I expect to
get flak for this but that's just the way it is when you live life with your
eyes closed.Well,give it to me....I have it coming...LOL!!!
That was then,these are highly dangerous times here on our homeland.Plus,it's
not just about the age factor.You only choose to read what I write what you
want to comment on.I'm saying that it's a ' fake document ' problem and if
they're are lying about there age then I gaurantee you they're lying about some
other things as well.

of America.Before 911,this subject wouldn't even cross my mind.
>>AND ... It is not limited to one nationality<<
Speaking personally for me,I know that well and good of course!
First of all Ben,you're too defensive.You fall under the fluff category.I love
all people.I just think it's time to crack down on all those who try to get by
our system with fake documents.We live in dangerous times and our complacency
is going to kill us all off.
20 people taking into custody today at Logans Airport in Boston for using fake
documents.Turn on the News,such as Foxnews,CNN,MSNBC and get caught up on your
current events.It just might be something to think about.
>>The rest of us will stay in the present and watch the best talent in the game

I have no idea how you've steered so far off course on this issue.It my be time
for a map,a compass and a navigator for you Ben.
Once again,not an issue of age! An issue of National security,an issue of
altered and fake documents.20 people caught at Bostons Logan Airport with fake
documents TODAY Geoff,TODAY!!

I'm just as leary of anyone,the Tim McVeigh's,the Ted Kacinsky's,as
well.Everyone needs to be carefully checked out when at all possible in any
given situation warranted.Hoover shouldn't of said ' Latin Ballplayers are
Liars' and I don't think that way at all,it's just that the subject hit a chord
with me in general.Being concerned for our safety is all I'm concerned about
and that's all I'm trying to say.
>>Personally, I think we should put all left-handed people in jail.

In my opinion,people like you who generalize people as
Liberals,Righty's,Lefty's etc are just as guilty in the profiling
department.Why can't somebody just have a say about things without being
labeled something?I think you just hung yourself accidently....but that's
ok....I'll cut the rope for ya Geoff :) Peace! Mike

Maybe you should look up at the header. If you're confused, it says:

Hilarious. This, from someone who posts using the name "Zipzorb."
Actually, I'm only 11-years-old. But even at 11 my reading comp. skills
told me the subject was about baseball. While I recognize the problems
post September 11th, I'm not quite as worried about Latin ballplayers
throwing
baseballs at the Pentagon as you seem to be. If they attack the Sears tower
with baseball bats ... I'm betting the tower wins.
To me ... the rest of your post was drivel. If you are that frightened ...

Let's get your position straight - are you talking about Arabs, or Muslims? Most
Muslims are not Arab. So according to this poll, you would want to target
Muslims? Because a poll of less than 0.001% of their population resulted in a
majority having an opinion that you don't like? And who took the poll in the first
place, Rumsfeld and the Office of Strategic Influence?
Did I say keep them out Ben?Make sure their documents are legit that's
all,simple enough huh?. People coming into our Country using fake documents is
the point.So what your saying is,that's it's perfectly fine because he's a '
Baseball player' first and a human being second?You'll learn the lesson as time
goes by.
>I fail to see how lying about your age in order to get a better contract in

It's hilarious and mind boggling how most everyone here comes back with the

With all due respect, I think you're missing the point here. With the
exception of Albert Belle and Chris Truby, baseball players aren't menaces
to national security. False documents *can* be a serious issue, but in
this case, they're not. They merit a slap on the wrist, but deportation
is silly: it just takes away resources from where they're needed more
urgently. It's like how copyright infringement is a bad thing, but
no-one's *really* going to care if you have two .mp3s on your hard drive.
A more serious problem, IMHO, is people like Hoover, who take advantage of
insecure times to further their own agendas.

You took a perfectly miserable inflammatory baseball post, turned it
into a perfectly miserable political post ... And now you are turning it
into
a post of your miserable, degenerate sexual desires.
Spring training is here, Zip. Fight your way past the rubber suit with the
zipper mask. Fight those unnatural yearnings off, Zip.
You may, however, keep the rubber ball in your mouth.

What is "hilarious" and "mind boggling," is that "most everyone here" is
telling you the same thing ... in different words ... and you *still* don't
get
it.
Ok Bill,I give in. I've just been a little depressed since all the crap that's
happened in the last 5 month or so,and maybe it's turned me into an Archie
Bunker a little bit,but I don't believe it's because I'm racially profiling,I
truly believe that we have to be careful with everyone.I blew this whole topic
out of what it really was from the beginning.PLAY BALL!! :)

An interesting twist on this is the first player I was aware of who
lied about his age. Rollie Sheldon.
Didn't use a false birth certificate or anything. Just omitted the
time he spent in the Marines from his life story and allowed
people to draw the wrong conclusion about his age. Came clean
after he made the Yankees.
His logic was that if he'd told the truth about his age he'd never
have received an honest look. And he was probably right.
IIRC there are some details in Ball Four.
