Gosh :rolleyes:

[RKMeibalane]

Oh, no...

[Jurr]

It's funny that players will always be given chances just because they were PROVEN at one time.

HAHAHA....I'd almost completely forgotten about Rocker.... Where's he been the past few years?

[PAPChiSox729]

I am surprised, even for an Independent League team. Are they really that desperate?

[Stroker Ace]

He signed with the Long Island Ducks! HAHAHA! I go to school no more than 45 min. away from their park! I gotta go see how badly he'll get booed.

It is interesting how the article talks about Rocker "getting a chance" and all that. As I recall he was out of the major leagues because he sucked, not because of any of his inappropriate comments.

[Baby Fisk]

Sounds like Long Island Duck fans are a pretty tough bunch...

Rocker gets into it with fan (http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/story/306328p-262117c.html)

The fan was from the Atlantic City team they were playing, but he said he agreed with Rocker's comments on New Yorkers? :noevil:

Not that I would defend Rocker's comments, cause I'm not, but I don't think his were any worse than some of the garbage coming out of Barroid's trap.
