Former Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott on Life Support

[Norbert]

I know she severely misspoke about as often as whistleass but I was glad she was the owner of the Reds or else they would have left for greener pastures. Sorry to see her in a bad way but man was she ever a chain smoker.

1. Her real crime was being a woman

in a man's field. She got hung for her idiotic tendency to speak humongously poorly.

2. She's racist as hell...

...but she was willing to spend to put the best team on the field.

I hated her then, but with Carl Linder (the evilest owner in baseball, with the possible exception of BeelzeBud Selig) in charge of the Reds; I sure miss her now.

3. she's not a racist..

she just had a difficult time relating to her "million dollar niggers", that's all.

5. Ah, yes.

I believe she was referring to Dave Parker with that comment.
