We could have an extensive thread on white athletes that get their ass kicked by black teammates. A thread that had whites beating up blacks would be very short. It's a metaphor for what is going on in out society. Whites are too civilized, too polite, too aware of the consequences, of fighting with someone else, especially a teammate, to summon up the rage to win these altercations.
The Zambozo incident with the Cubs was the most high profile but I bet it happens a lot.
The Tigers triple a team just had an incident. Romon Colon an immigrant job stealer from the Dominican Rupublic was on rehabilitation assignment with the Toledo Mudhens, which by the way was just the Tigers managements way of hiding him from the big league roster as they have too many pitchers that they want to keep and not enough options.
Anyway the clown had his music turned up too high in the clubhouse, I'm sure it was after a loss and and he was blaring some salsa crap, and since he's just on "rehab" he almost certainly doesn't give a rat's ass what happens to the lowly minor leaguers team. A fellow hispanic turns the music down and he explodes.
A white guy tells him to calm down which makes the mestizo warrior even angrier, another white guy gets into a shoving match with him and then a fight ensues and the white guy trying to break it up, Jason Karnuth, gets beat up pretty badly. Although it was "accidental".
It's bad enough that the police are charging Colon in the incident with felonius assault so there are obvious details missing. Colon must've went savage on Karnuth after he was accidentally hit trying to break it up. I've seen it with blacks before, as soon as a white guy is injured and vulnerable to attack they really turn it on and try to kill the poor guy. You see the same thing with wild animals, probably for the same reasons.
Colon plays the race card soon after: "I should not be the only one suspended," Colon told the Free Press. "Why should I be suspended when they were calling me a [expletive] to my face?"
Wonder what expletive they were calling him, couldn't have been n*gger or else they would have been suspended, although he might be claiming that even though it's not true.
Colon told the Detroit Free Press he believes race played a factor in his suspension.
"When they called people into the office to ask what happened in the fight, there were no Latino people in there," he said. "So, I was alone."
Doubtful Colon will be returned to the team after his suspention. He most likely will make his way into some unwary white community in America where this type of behavior will play out many times again.
