Sports Illustrated's poll of MLB players finds 45% picking the Tigers to win the World Series. Following them are the Red Sox (24%), Mets (8%), Cubs, Angels and Yankees, all with 3%. Of the six teams, all are Caste System prototypes except the Red Sox.I think that just as in past seasons, there will again be "surprise" teams that areconsiderably less Caste-devoted than those five big spending teams.

The Tigers started four white players today, maybe they're starting to understand that some types of "diversity" are better than others. . .

The Tigers were the next to last team to integrate, I believe. They did not have a black player until 1959. Former Milwaukee Brave center fielder Billy Bruton came to Detroit in a trade in 1961. He and 2nd baseman Jake Wood were the first blacks in the Tiger regular lineup that year.

Those guys are real good ball players too. The numerous injuries and underperforming of the high priced hispanic players has led to the Tigers giving shots to the talent at their triple A team in Toledo.

Best thing that could happen is a poor season by the team and a brooming out of the lazy over paid latinos.

Correction. Ozzie Virgil, who was also latin, came to the Tigers in 1958.

The Tigers were clearly pro-white all the way through the eighties, rarely signing black players and never "troublemakers". But that reflected the white working class "Reagan democrats" that filled the autofactories and also the ballpark. Those guys (and I was one) knew what blacks were like from working with them and wanted nothing to do with them so we moved to lily white suburbs as far from "diversity" as we could get and liked our ballplayers the same way. But that was 20-30-40 years ago which is a million years ago in racial reality for white people.

A generation of white kids have been raised far from the city and don't know what it's like until it slaps them upside the head. Hence support for a black hispanic ball club that reflect nothing more then a sign of their eventual extinction.

I recently saw a white middle class guy my age with his kids, wearing an expensive replica "Sheffield" Tigers jersey. He might as well have been wearing an "I'm an *******" shirt. I feel sorry for his kids. And everybody else that's going to grow up in a world where people are so clueless.

It is not just Detroit Jax,last week when C.C. Sabathia was traded to the Milwaukee Brewers Whites packed Miller park to "welcome" him,one sign read,"welcome to the crew #52".of course it was held by White fans.Milwaukee has seen an escalation of black crime and violence over the years.


From Jared Taylors fine work 'Paved With Good Intentions",on page 201,we learn that a black alderman named Michael McGee,threatened Milwaukee with "bloodshed and terrorism"if $100 million was not set aside for black neighborhoods to put blacks on the same economic level as Whites,he gave the city until 1995 to comply!
