concerning Adam Jones and 'fans' fenway Park

Boston has always been a racist, segregated and very hateful city outside the university(s) bubble. I lived there and attended one of it's university's from 70-75. Still the same old Boston where when I lived there an African student who got on one of the wrong lines on their fables "T" was beaten to death by south bostoners. I feel for the AA players. Yet money is good, so they stay.

I remember Bill Lee who pitched for the Red Sox saying that Boston was the most racist city he had seen. I believed him because 'smoking pot' makes you aware of such things.
