Pirates broadcast is not a fan of Ronald Acuña's jewelry or "stuff”

[Dorian Breh]

Pittsburgh is a dump

 

[GoddamnyamanProf]

I want him to elaborate on “stuff.” shyt is ambiguous. What is it?

He felt strongly enough to list it twice

I remember back in the 90s, almost every player had a chain or earrings on. What is this fool talking about

 

[IllmaticDelta]

This was a common complaint I would hear from white callers on wfan who watch MLB

 

[Professor Emeritus]

You would know better than I would.

The Dietrich comments are one of the most appalling things I've ever seen or heard a commentator say about a player and he's white. I think if they were covering an Angels game and Mike Trout came out looking like Eric B. & Rakim in the 80s they'd have a meltdown.

Holy crap I just looked up the Dietrich shyt and I'm surprised he wasn't fired for that. Talking shyt about a player is bad enough, talking shyt via a player's beloved, deceased gramps and you're asking for someone to throw hands.

I didn’t know baseball players could wear earrings til I saw that 30 for 30 about the Hernandez brothers leaving Cuba

My first refereed basketball game I forgot to take my earrings off had to give them shyts to the scorers. Iverson the only one who got away with it in the NBA.

I had a pair of these Barry Bond ear rings as a kid... Shocked he wore those cause they hung, Barry Bonds was the GOAT to me as a kid.

Man...lets these dudes shine...what kinda hater ass shyt is this

 

[Absolut]

Holy crap I just looked up the Dietrich shyt and I'm surprised he wasn't fired for that. Talking shyt about a player is bad enough, talking shyt via a player's beloved, deceased gramps and you're asking for someone to throw hands.

Bob Costas went in on some reliever who had a bad showing saying some shyt like “he’s looking to the heavens to ask his departed relatives for forgiveness after that despicable performance” it was so random and so unnecessary

 

[fact]

What back in the day is he talking about because I remember dudes in the 80s in baseball rocking jewelry honestly baseball is the only sport I recall dudes being on shine...am I tripping or didn't Eric Davis and Barry Larkin used to wear jewels I know Deion did.

I swore dude was Panamanian with all the rail thin chains he used to rock.

 

[staticshock]

Oh theres definitely probably a lot of racism mixed in, its just not 100 percent racism. Pittsburgh is a city thats proud to be old and white. At least it was when I lived there. I don't think they even have a hip hop radio station anymore...

I gathered that same feeling when I visited last year for the first time

Yep, and that expos logo just reminded me of how Bad Vlad used to rock a bunch of little ass chains that looked like chokers, or that’s how I remember it anyway.

Damn, Walt stays in the mid west and I consider Pittsburgh a mid western city.
