Off His Rocker
‘‘Imagine having to take the 7 train to (Shea Stadium
in New York) looking like you’re (in) Beirut next to some kid
with purple hair, next to some queer with AIDS, right next to some
dude who got out of jail for the fourth time, right next to some
20-year-old mom with four kids,’’ Rocker said. ‘‘It’s
depressing.’’
Rocker also attacked New York’s diversity:
‘‘The biggest thing I don’t like about New York are the
foreigners,’’ he said. ‘‘You can walk an entire block in Times Square and not hear anybody speaking English. Asians and
Koreans and Vietnamese and Indians and Russians and Spanish people
and everything up there. How the hell did they get in this country?’’
Rocker was suspended for 28 days by baseball,
but the suspension was cut in half by an arbitrator.
