Known for his wild nature and homophobic slurs, John Rocker, the former Atlanta Braves closer, did an Reddit Ask Me Anything on Tuesday to promote the website thuzio.com. It doens’t appear Rocker has changed on bit.
**LANGUAGE WARNING**
This last question, of course refers to Rocker’s comments about the city of New York back in a 1999 Sports Illustrated article.
“Imagine having to take the 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. 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?”
John Rocker: Good spokesman? Bad idea, Thuzio.com.
