Jackie Robinson

Today is the 60th anniversary of Mr. Robinson's debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers. Jackie has long been a hero of mine, and I have read several books, including the most recent biography by Arnold Rampersad. I have been looking forward to tonight's game on ESPN when Jackie would be honored. However, I should have realized that the network would fuck this up. How did they do so? Well, in light of the recent events with Don Imus, leave it to ESPN to have known racists Jesse Jackson and Spike Lee, former Minnesota basketball thug Dave Winfield and moron (who had some poor comments this week) Stuart Scott involved in their tribute. What a shame that espn would mess this up...Oh and where's Al Sharpton?
