You remember John Rocker! Sure you do! He was a lousy pitcher for the 1999 Atlanta Braves for a few years. He was known for a big mouth and bad pitching. He was often suspended for his mouth and was traded down and down and finally out by 2005. After he retired he threatened the world with a book! He said it will not be used to try to repair his reputation, but will rather be “more conservative Republican rantings.” It came out in 2011, don’t miss it!
Over the past seven years Rocker – who is proud to admit his steroid use when he played – and his hot wife lead a political group called SPEAK ENGLISH. “YOU WETBACKS” was removed from the t-shirts. Here is the kind of thing he was always in trouble for and caused him suspensions and trades.
“New York is the most hectic, nerve-racking city. Imagine having to take the [Number] 7 train to the ballpark, looking like you’re [riding through] Beirut next to some kid with purple hair next to some queer with AIDS right next to some dude who just got out of jail for the fourth time right next to some 20-year-old mom with four kids. It’s depressing. … The biggest thing I don’t like about New York are the foreigners. I’m not a very big fan of foreigners. You can walk an entire block in Times Square and not hear anybody speaking English. Asians and Koreans and Vietnamese and Indians and Russians and Spanish people and everything up there. How the hell did they get in this country?”
Just the other day this credible voice for the GOP got back in the news for this one.
“Like hopefully a majority of Americans out there, I’ll be voting against President Obama this year. I won’t necessarily be voting for the Republican candidate as much as I will be voting against Obama. … This country cannot sustain four more years of his cancerous ideology. … It seems that Governor Romney will be getting my vote, although be it somewhat by default. I would vote for the devil himself over Barack Obama which would actually be tough though as he seems to already be a supporter.”
What attracted me to this story was that this guy has a twin in Ted Nugent. They should get together and go gunning down puppies with machine guns. NUGENT ROCKER 2016!
