Orioles' Adam Jones berated by racist taunts at Fenway Park

[funnyb25]

I see on the ticker that he isn't "backing down"

[grease lightnin]

A peanut vendor who was in the section where it all happened has been interviewed by a sports blog saying that nobody called Jones the n word. Curt Schilling is the only member of the media to say anything about it so far and something tells me it will stay that way.

Adam Jones got tossed from the game at Fenway last night.

Hard to get videos of things now a day. Nobody in a stadium of 35,000 has a cell phone.

Even if he did get called a racial slur, is it really worse than anything you'd normally hear in Boston like "your mom is a whore and a blew a load in her Ass last night"? I'd rather be called a cracker ass cracker

Fan has been banned for LIFE.
Deservedly so for not being creative enough with his insults.

This is not involving the incident with Adam Jones. This was last night and the racial slur was hurled at another spectator, not a player.

Funny how Jones is the only one that said this happended to him of all the black players that come to Boston.

Apparently CC Sabathia commented on the matter.

Check out Ken Burns' Civil War documentary.



In all seriousness.... that is a ridiculous analogy. You don't find it odd that not one witness has corroborated Jones' story?

I don't like to label dower. I only like to think for myself and encourage others to do the same. ;-)

I think it's starting to become obvious that Adam Jones made up the part of his story involving racial slur. Which is shameful. Of course, city of Boston, sports media and MLB will lick his crank regardless. God our society is so weak.

What did he have to say for himself.

[manny24]

still not one person has stepped forward to say they captured the moment

on their phone or heard what was allegedly said?
