Thats just me, cheering and booing seems enough in my eyes. Some fans are all in players faces pointing and cursing at them in basektball games just seems a little much to me.
    Here's what Adam Jones should have said:

    Reporter- "So we heard that there some racial insults being hurled at you. What is your take Adam?"

    Adam Jones - "Hey man, people pay to come to the game. They can say whatever they want. It doesn't bother me. Do you think I got to where I go to in life by having what someone says about me affect me? I'm way too mentally tough for that. It doesn't bother me. I don't care. People can say whatever they want about me. This is America. Everyone has the right to an opinion"

    Which would result in a libtard reporter saying something like "So you're not offended by the n word"

    Adam Jones - "Bro, I'm not offended by any words. I'm a pro athlete. I've dealt with legit struggles to get here. Words do not affect me, especially from opposing fans. Bring it on"
    That's how an alpha male would respond.

    Adam Jones is nothing but a beta excuse making weakling.

    they are just words people, why are you offended by a pro athletes genetics word's and bitching about them on a chitty chat room.

    weaklings offended by some goof ball with good athletic opinions

    They used to throw D-Cell batteries at Bobby Bonilla.

    Crazy Bonilla fact, he collects over a $1,000,000 every July 1st from the Mets and will continue to do so until the year 2035.

    Meh, its about perspective. Id be willing to bet that same guy or guys wouldnt have blurted out racial epithets at Jones had he seen him casually walking down the street, lol nope. So he does it where he feels safe knowing Jones cant scale the outfield wall and put hands on him, therefore said guy is a coward. I wonder if you were out with your girl and a guy was standing behind you guys and he started saying ugly things about her for no reason and started calling her names like whore, c unt, and bitch if youd casually brush it off and ignore it. Or maybe if you were with your mom and the same thing happened. And those wouldnt even be racial slurs but still enough to probably get you incensed enough to do something other than simply ignore it. So basically if you have no problem with it happening in Boston youd have no problem with him being called such in every stadium every single game and no doubt even in public every day of his life, whats the difference, theyre just words right.

    Well, considering African blacks sold captured blacks into slavery, freed blacks in North America owned black slaves at a much higher percentage than white people, and white governments were the first to abolish slavery, it would be much more accurate to call black people crackers. Now I'll just wait to be called indecent and unevolved by those offended by the truth but powerless to dispute it.

    I was always told that white people were referred to as "Crackers" because they were light in color and easy to break.

    Maybe I'm just confident in who I am? Other people who are offended... aren't?

    Too many male athletes acting like women. You get paid to play... take the verbal heat. It's part of why you get paid.

    Furthermore, I question Adam Jones integrity. Sounds like he's blowing it up more than it really is... I'm sure a lot of sh#$ is said to these baseball players every single day. Probably called his mom a whore... but is she? If stuff like this offends you... you need to find a new career... possibly lock yourself in a cave somewhere.

    I would love love to see someone actually make a solid argument against this rather than saying "good lord" or "so stupid". I have a feeling I know why this type of argument goes unchallenged.

    usually when a guy has the word tex or Ranger in his screen name i find a flat out racist dikwad. It is refreshing to see one screen name with the word "Tex" in it have some common sense backing it. What we have in this country is 25 percent white racist and 25 percent black racist and we have to watch these two asshole groups fight this nonsense out over and over again. At least the blacks have a gripe but these white 25 percent will only go away when they die off. They are a product of their racist parents. Kids today don't even see racism especially in school so like i said the only hope is to see these assholes die off. Not one of them can think for themselves and maybe take a back step from their racist parents. Nah they storm right ahead with these nasty thoughts because their skulls are thicker than a concrete curb.

    There is not a long history of fat or ugly people being discriminated against. Don't recall seeing lynchings of ugly people, or ugly only bathrooms. You have to be beyond ignorant to not see why this would be even more offensive and deserve the outrage it's getting.

    And it's not to defend the other stuff, because it's all nonsense that players should not be subjected to, and all warrants fans being ejected. Just because guys are getting paid a lot of money does not mean they should be subjected to personal insults while performing their job, and just because you paid for a ticket does not give you the right to say and do whatever you want.

    Stuff like this is why loved that brawl is detroit, douche bag fans finally got what they deserve. If you throw a beer on someone at a bar, they would kick the shit out of you, and nobody would have an issue with it, so just because you paid for a ticket to a game does not make that okay.

    Given his history, it does seem plausible that while a bag of peanuts may have been thrown, he embellished the whole part about the N word. I wouldn't put it past him.

    Where are you getting that he made it up? All the news outlets are still continuing with the story that it happened just like he said, not that I expect any of them would be the first to expose it if it's a hoax

    im sure he hears the n word at least a few times every game esp in BOSTON that place is still filled with tons of racism plz stop. If you read what he said he clearly stated it was one of the worst exp in his 12yrs why would he exaggerate that now and not four yrs ago if it wasnt true. Not saying he shouldnt keep having tough skin but stop with the stupidity.

    Not only uncalled for but bad analogy considering he isn't accusing them of calling him "black"
