lmao @ jonathan ogden being considered a "pinoy athelete".
Dude is probably one of the biggest, blackest, afro havin brothas in the history of the game.
Both of these dudes you named like tim and teddy are half and claiming them would just be symbolic moreso than reality. You are NOT going to see tim lincecum get celebrated like a brian viloria, nonito donaire and manny pac.
If those guys were from the phillipines or had a dominant phillipino upbringing i think it would be more feasible to say that.
You might say "well black people claim halfbreeds all the time!"
that actually was the law in america, you kind of didint have a choice.Last edited by El Jesus; 10-22-2009, 03:20 PM.Comment

Roids are a global issue, not an American or African American issue.
Just check out the Tour De France and Olympics. Athletes from all over are getting caught.

C'mon, that's like saying Carmelo Anthony is Rican just because his Mom's family are Ricans. We're talking born and raise here. Anyway I never heard of Flips doing roids but then there's no to many of them. How's that?? One pinoy per .5 million black athlete right now.Comment
