The "Negro League" was the shyt though -- and wasn't able to become the Superpower it should have been due to White Supremacy/Racism on a "Global League" level.
He could or should have said I want to make the Global League the "Negro League."
But, that would sound too much like right - to/as a Black man in a #tragicrelationship.

A damn shame that all that hard work will be back in the hands of whites inside of a generation or two, and they certainly won't carry on the Black agenda.

EverythingHappy for the man but, what’s wrong with
the negro league?
It's a backhanded opportunity and the most obvious form of segregation of opportunities based on race (apartheid in South-Africa, racism 101)
'Listen negro.. you can't play in our league. Of course. BUT.. you can play in the.. you're ready for it negro?.. Yes?.. NEGRO LEAGUE!!'
No.
We want do PART TAKE AND DOMINATE AND OWN in the NBA, NFL, MLB, fukk it.. the NHL AND GLOBAL business
I guarantee people come in here and call him a c00n
fukking dummies

He obviously doesn't want his wealth to pass to black people, either, looking at his family.

Nah. The Negro League came out of Black men wanting to play and the league/teams to be owned by fellow Black men - due to White people and their racism/WS. Black athletes today can figure out a way to do what Rube Foster did and make the NBA, NFL, etc - void if they wanted to and be the owners.
In 1920, Foster, Taylor, and the owners of six other midwestern clubs met in the spring to form a professional baseball circuit for African-American teams. Foster, as president, controlled league operations, while remaining owner and manager of the American Giants. He was periodically accused of favoring his own team, especially in matters of scheduling (the Giants in the early years tended to have a disproportionate number of home games) and personnel: Foster seemed able to acquire whatever talent he needed from other clubs, such as Jimmie Lyons, the Detroit Stars' best player in 1920, who was transferred to the American Giants for 1921, or Foster's own younger brother, Bill, who joined the American Giants unwillingly when Rube forced the Memphis Red Sox to give him up in 1926. His critics believed he had organized the league primarily for purposes of booking games for the American Giants. With a stable schedule and reasonably solvent opponents, Foster was able to improve receipts at the gate. It is also true that when opposing clubs lost money, he was known to help them meet payroll, sometimes out of his own pocket.
-------
Because blacks were not being accepted into the major and minor baseball leagues due to racism in the United States, they formed their own teams and had made professional teams by the 1880s.
As early as 1910, Foster started talking about reviving the concept of an all-black league. The one thing he was insistent upon was that black teams should be owned by black men. This put him in direct competition with Strong. After 1910, Foster renamed his team the Chicago American Giants to appeal to a larger fan base. During the same year, J. L. Wilkinson started the All Nations traveling team. The All Nations team would eventually become one of the best-known and popular teams of the Negro leagues, the Kansas City Monarchs.

Dope af homie
This is the key part though

=
They could not play in the MLB, NFL etc.
This is the whole point. We want to be in and dominate the leagues making the most money, which are these leagues, the leagues that are recognized as the leading leagues in sports.
