Gammons: Racist and Stupid

Peter Gammons is a fucking idiot. I, like most baseball fans, assumed that brain aneurysm was simply caused by all the moronic thoughts trying to escape from his head at once. Well, apparently they didn't all make it out. On The Herd this morning with the equally ridiculous Colin Cowherd, Gammons blasted the media for not focusing enough on the Red Sox victory. While he can blame the media, Alex Rodriguez and his agent Scott Boras all he wants, the fact of the matter is the media focuses on the shit that the audience wants to see. That's how they make money. So if there's not enough coverage of the Red Sox it's because nobody gives a shit about the stupid Red Sox. Just like nobody outside of Boston gives a shit about the fucking Patriots. Just like nobody outside of Boston gives a shit about the "Big Three" of the Celtics. Just like nobody outside of Boston gives a shit about Boston College besides Doug Flutie and his son, Tommy Westphall. Just like nobody in Boston gives a shit about the Bruins. But, I digress. Anyways, in the segment, Gammons claimed that Texas Rangers owner Tom Hicks was stupid. Yes, the man is only worth $1.3 billion, I'm sure he just accidentally struck oil one day. Gammons then implied that Angels' owner Arte Moreno might essentially be tricked into signing A-Rod. Why? Is Moreno stupid? Of course not. He's a very successful businessman. But Gammons assumes he's stupid. Is this because Moreno's a Latino and Gammons is an elitist racist douchebag? I'd say yes. By the way, who gives a shit what Peter Gammons has to say? Peter Gammons heading ESPN's baseball coverage is akin to a '96 Reagan Presidency.
