Source: Jason Miller / Getty Frank Robinson Dead At Age 83 This has been a sad day for Black athletes. This morning we reported on the death of viral boxing champ Rocky Lockridge , now we bring you more morbid news. The very first Black man to be a manager in Major League Baseball, Frank Robinson, has died at age 83 according to a WLWT report. Robinson played for the Cincinnati Reds from 1956 through 1965 and is STILL the only player to win the MVP award in both the National and American leagues. Robinson proudly wore #20 and three teams have proudly retired his number over the years, Baltimore, Cleveland, and Cincinnati. Robinson was a resilient manager. In 1988 he began the season with 21 consecutive losses, but won “manager of the year” the very next season.
Michelle Rodriguez Denies That Liam Neeson’s Racist Michelle Rodriguez is catching hell from people who can’t believe what she said about one of her recent costars. If you’ve been keeping up then you’re well aware that Liam Neeson confessed that he had a black male murder fantasy and looked for a black man to kill after his friend was raped. He’s seen denied being racist and added that speed walking (yes, speed walking) helped cure him of his bias . Weird dude. Now his “Widows” costar Michelle Rodriguez is coming to his defense. The actress spoke to Vanity Fair on the red carpet at the amfAR Gala and categorically denied that he’s racist. According to Michelle, that’s impossible because of his passionate spit swapping with Viola Davis in “Widows.” “It’s all fuckin’ bulls***. Liam Neeson is not a racist,” said Rodriguez. “Dude, have you watched Widows? His tongue was so far down Viola Davis’s throat. You can’t call him a racist ever. Racists don’t make out with the race that they hate, especially in the way he does with his tongue—so deep down her throat. I don’t care how good of an actor you are. It’s all bulls***. Ignore it. He’s not a racist. He’s a loving man. It’s all lies.” Sis. *stares in Sally Hemmings* She’s now being fast and furiously escorted out the paint from fans who think she should’ve shifted into STFU… Sees Michelle Rodriguez trending… pic.twitter.com/Jk4Ihk0bCZ — LeslieMac (@LeslieMac) February 7, 2019 Michelle Rodriguez: liam isnt racist he kissed that black chick in that movie… Me: pic.twitter.com/qse6HaJffK — Big Girl Slay (@Biggirlslay) February 7, 2019 and who think our GOOD Auntie’s resisting clapping back at Litty’s lies.
