That he was lacking and that. -- Yao Ming. Lacking in that area I don't think so not that I would know -- those things news to me keep trying to do these things he says doctor Edwards this is whitlock writing help me understand the cultural conflict. Between African Americans and Asian Americans that is most acute in California Harry Edwards Kerry Edwards got into -- talking and Jason whitlock quote. Latinos have taken the jobs we don't want. And Asians have the jobs we can't get he explained. Doctor -- -- -- to describe the tension between inner city African Americans and the Asian store owners. Who do business in the inner city. Doctor edwards' point was the inappropriate joke. I thought I was cracking on a stereo type I share with Asian and white men. Was really a tweak the touched something far more important and far more intense Jeremy -- he writes. Is performing and succeeding in a culture the black basketball culture. It is perceived by many Asian Americans as hostile towards them. At the time in my real Tebow great story tweet I was impressed by the novelty of -- sentient I'd given no -- to the importance of it. No he just -- himself and I think when when when Clark tries to explain away a mistake a an emotional spotless maybe even inebriated. -- and while watching the game he called Harry Edwards talked about the cultural implications yes. You know what Floyd Mayweather. Is how bad it was for -- we look forward -- Mayweather made more sense. He was half right. It is part of the story these Asian it's one of the reasons it's so big -- English but if the black I did this it would still be huge story. Would -- you are Rourke if a black idea. I don't care fruits you know carrier stop predicted this it's still a big story he scored more. Than anyone since the merger in the first -- in his first five starts. You know and and that includes Michael Jordan by the way and that includes magic Johnson and and that includes.

So much for that even if Herbert did this mean you you'd you'd think that he was would ascend to that thrown bingo -- a topic. This guy I was at the end of the bench this guy was just you know and wanted to do that and we're just that -- but if a black guy.

It's a big deal sure it's just not a big it is big deal because guess what would matter whether. They're not gauging the the the interest in China. 51.

It's but it's still huge story no matter what race no matter what Spike -- tendency you wrongfully and so we're to believe that the Chinese people by and large are accepting and embracing this we're trying to determine that -- I say we have to determine jury I think it has to have to -- Harry Edwards announcement that business. This is Mayweather is quote Jeremy Lin is a good player but all the hype is because he's Asian. Players do what he does every night and don't get the same race. I got a second point I think there are a number of black players on the knicks who were getting it done. I would point guard were able to ms. -- when he million right out of their stars bottom Meyer and Carmelo out there there were a number of guys -- -- Black who couldn't do idea black guys don't do it every night it's never been done what he -- it right that's on precedent and if they did they did they would get -- lot of praise again if if -- are -- or whoever a black I did this.

He has one -- to thinks he has -- with Tebow -- is that they're all very privileges and where on this sleeve and don't hesitate to give glory to god that that rubs people on the wet food -- my face again. You know. But the other thing is there are doing it. In the Twitter verse. There are people -- in Davis who haven't watched a game.

NESN's Barry Pederson on the Bruins dominance

Cleveland Indians hottest team in baseball, yet remain last in attendance May 19, 2013 By AJ Kaufman 6 Comments There’s a scene in Major League where Bob Uecker, portraying the radio voice of the Indians, bemoans, “In case you haven’t noticed, and judging by the attendance you haven’t, the Indians have managed to win a few here and there, and are threatening to climb out of the cellar.” Well, that was nearly 25 years ago and fictional, but today’s reality is that Cleveland has won 17 of its last 21, and currently tops the AL Central with a mark of 25-17. No one in the majors is better than the Indians in the past month (20-7). That’s great news. The bad news, however, is the Tribe somehow remain in the MLB cellar when it comes to attendance. How can this be? The fact that I wrote on this same topic almost to the day last year – when only Tampa Bay drew fewer fans than Cleveland - may be even more troubling. Though roughly 34,000 watched a walk-off win Friday night against Seattle, perfect weather and free caps weren’t enough to draw more than 36,000 Saturday and Sunday combined. What did the Indians do in those tilts? They nabbed another walk-off win on Saturday, then the Indians crushed the great Felix Hernandez Sunday behind Justin Masterson, arguably the AL’s best pitcher right now. Fun fact: The Indians have already faced eight Cy Young Award winners in 2013: Bartolo Colon, R.A. Dickey, Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee, Jake Peavy, David Price, Justin Verlander and Hernandez. They have won seven out those eight matchups. Simply astounding. This offseason, the much-maligned Indians front office finally made a legitimate attempt to improve the team through free agency. I’m not talking an Ubaldo Jimenez-like trade, but rather smart acquisitions that brought veterans Mike Aviles, Michael Bourn, Jason Giambi, Scott Kazmir, Brett Myers, Mark Reynolds, Drew Stubbs and Nick Swisher to Cleveland. In addition to being a fantastic place to watch a game due to great egress and ingress, with extremely affordable tickets, the best promo lineup anywhere, Jacobs Field boasts overall, cooler, less muggy summer weather than most Midwestern locales. The team also lowered beer and hot dog prices to $4 and $3 respectively. What other professional stadium in any sport offers that? I have visited 28 of the 30 current Major League Baseball stadia, and few top The Jake when all angles are considered. I say that as a baseball fan, not an Indians fan. As for the putative “economic” angle, these are the same people who spend insane amounts of money to watch terrible football every fall and show up in decent numbers for putrid basketball in the winter. Irrespective of season length, those sports charge up to 10 times the price for a ticket, and the atmosphere isn’t half as fan-friendly as baseball. I understand fans’ lack of willingness to get on board to some degree. A decent recap of Cleveland’s decade of “rebuilding” can be read here and the team suffered a horrific collapse last August. However, in addition to all the benefits of attending games at Jacobs (now Progressive) Field, fans should also realize the team has potential and often exceeds preseason aspirations at any point without warning. Cleveland hosts the rival Detroit Tigers — heavy favorites to repeat as AL Central champs — Tuesday and Wednesday nights before hitting the road. The temperature should be pleasant at first pitch each evening so you’d expect The Jake to be full to watch the best hitter on the planet right now — but don’t count on it.

By and large, the focus of development in the minor leagues is on players. Still, there is a developmental path for coaches and managers in the farm system, as is evident from the fact that the previous two managers of the Red Sox' Triple-A affiliate in Pawtucket -- Torey Lovullo (2010) and Arnie Beyeler (2011-12) are now both on the Red Sox' big league coaching staff. They share their insights about the differences between player and coaching expectations in Triple-A vs. the majors, while discussing professional development from the perspective of former minor league managers who aspire to similar positions in the big leagues.
