I'm confused. No one said the Josh Gibson Foundation gets most of it's money from MLB. Most sounds like a lot. What I said was contributes. Like they do to many organizations around the country to support youth baseball and other initiatives. Also no one said prominent role about the foundation in anything. I've never heard of you, no one knows what you do either. Do some research, stop being so intellectually lazy, it doesn't take a genius to goggle what they do. And no one said naming the MVP Award after Josh Gibson will solve any problems. That was never even in the conversation. They are trying to do something, many people are trying to do something and raise awareness, you do nothing. I guess beyond intellectually lazy you are also maliciously deceptive.

But the fact that I've never heard of the Josh Gibson Foundation is, I think, an indication that the foundation may not be playing the prominent role that maybe it should be or that you think it is. The fact that black participation in youth baseball has been declining for decades shows that there's a lot of work to do in this area, and if that's the JGF's focus, then I'd want to know why it doesn't seem to be making an impact. And if the JGF is getting most of its money from MLB, I'd want to know why that investment doesn't seem to be paying any dividends. And if you think that the best way to address this problem is to name an award after Josh Gibson, then I'd want to know what you're smoking and who your supplier is.
