He has had two other homers in September - 8th and 14th.  I'd say he's definitely doing a good job offensively, though not great.  He has been on an uptick lately, good to see.

Wow, what a production monster!  *SARCASM MODE OFF*

But agree.  Nice to see him waking up.

It cracks me up when somebody calls somebody from Africa or the Caribbean an "African American". 

My friend from Ghana would simply laugh and say "no, I'm an African, period".  As it turns out, there are a lot of people of color that are either African or descended from Africans, but are not from here, that get labeled the same as those from here.  That's why I generally prefer the term "black" as opposed to African American, as it is more expansive and inclusive of those of African descent, whether American or not. 

lol thats crazy, who calls somebody from tha carribean an african america? i don't even call myself african american. i prefer tha term black too, but white ppl generally feel more confortable with tha word african american.

White person?  Uh, excuse me.  Please refrain such a racial comment and refer to me properly as either "paleface" or "ghost."

Thank you.

looks like NOTLD is feeling especially sarcastic today.  Also the point of this thread seems to have sailed right over his head.  I guess Ronnie is on his crap list with dmitri for whatever reason

Well, white folks sometimes are on pins and needles to make sure they don't say something that will be taken the wrong way.  I never got comfortable with it, but younger folks seem more so. Perhaps they changed textbooks in schools or otherwise used the term so much in recent decades that it became the norm.  Not sure here.  I just use black, white, hispanic, and understand the hispanic people can be of any race.  It's more of a cultural distinction, than skin color distinction.  Cultural is more important anyway.

I am still amazed that Belliard doesn't count as black by MLB standards. Everything about him makes you believe he is black, but yet he doesn't count according to the logic of Sheffield, Sabathia, and Rollins.

HE DOESN'T "COUNT" AS BEING BLACK BECAUSE HE'S OF DOMINICAN DESCENT. PRETTY IGNORANT POST IF I DON'T SAY SO MYSELF.

OMG, I give him props and you spew that garbage?  Come on, Chief.  Its no secret I'm not much of a Belliard fan either but I prefer him to be on the team until the whole "Guzman, Lopez, Middle Infield" situation gets figured out.

I'm sorry that I missed the point of the thread.  I guess I'm so not "thug life" like the most of you.  I apologize.

Whatever floats your boat NOTLD.  I'm not going to pick an argument with you, I just like Ronnie's charisma.  I thought it was funny that you took a tongue-in-cheek thread so seriously.  Just because Ronnie's not a world-beater in the stats doesn't mean we can't enjoy his play.  There's more to having fun than just winning or being the best (though of course that helps).  If I only cared about our season record or what we're lacking in terms of talent, it would have been a miserable season to be a Nats fan.  I try to enjoy each and every game and play independently when possible.

You don't have to preach that to me, its like preaching to the choir.  However, charisma, being a nice guy, etc. doesn't get you far in the standings and really, we want at least a playoff berth in the near future and keeping guys because they are "nice" or "give out sticks of gum to fans" doesn't hack it.  But enjoy him while he lasts.

Where was the Robert Fick Fun Thread when he smashed his homer the other night?

I'm not sure if Fick qualifies as being human.  We recently discussed the possibility that he is actually a reptile.  (Are reptiles considered to be black or white?)

The Nationals with over 400 ABs with the highest batting averages are:
Dmitri Young, 452 ABs, .323, 13 HR, 73 RBIs
Ronnie Belliard, 464 ABs, .289, 11 HR, 52 RBIs

I can't think of a really good reason, other than injury or better defensive skills (at a time WHEN YOU HAVE A BIG LEAD, Mr. Acta), as to why you would bench your best hitters.  At the beginning of the season, nobody really expected that these two guys would even have this many at-bats in 2007.   Belliard is too much of a PIMP to pretend to be white bread.   


The Pimp Method

Jesse Jackson is responsible for getting blacks to call themselves "African-American," which began in a speech he made.  His racist purpose was to make himself the center of attention and create divisions among Americans, assigning himself to heal them.  Jesse should have been prosecuted for extortion years ago, when his group would accuse businesses of being racist, and refuse to back off until they paid a pile of money to his organization.  It didn't stop until somebody finally threatened to prosecute them.  Jesse can't hit a fastball either.

There is?  :nono: Not in my book and not in sports as far as I'm concerned.

If I only cared about our season record or what we're lacking in terms of talent,

Now that I've fixed Chief's post QFT

I think quoting for truth has been overdone already so I'm just going to concur with this sentiment ;)

I dont know what your talkin about. Jesse Jackson is tha man. He brings a lotta social awareness to tha US. That Jena 6 story would've enver made national headlines if it wasn't for him and al sharpton. Must've been another joke that wen tover my had. You should apply for Comicview.
