The freewheeling consortium blog about baseball, still hating George Bush, the weather, Chicago, live-blogging the End Times, the Chicago hot dog (NO KETCHUP!), inane rambling, and forever and always hating George Bush. ~ "Baseball is more than a game to me, it's a religion." -- Bill Klem, umpire. ~ "They're really behind ya around here..." -- Lee Elia, former manager ~

Wow.
There were more black players on the 1950 Brooklyn Dodgers than the 2007 Los Angeles Dodgers.
er, exactly. Can't report on Baseball as it's soooo boring, so I report on cricket, with it's quait terms and 5 day matches. Plus, then I'm the resident expert in sumthin...
Well, two things. Cricket and the urban black culture. Coz u kno, I'm with it. Holla!
Well, black athletes are playing Basketball & Football now. Face it, Basketball - exciting, urban. Football - fast, pounding. Baseball - stodgy, old.

Did they really have more blacks on the team in 1950, or is it more African Americans.
