Racism...even Baros?


Whaaaaaat?...I am so digusted,irritated,put off and angry all put into one..This rascism thing is becoming disastrous.The latest incident involves Czech striker,Milan Baros and Camerounian Stephane Mba.Baros is one striker I came to like during his time at Liverpool and the likeness increased with his showing at Euro 2004.But right now,I don't think there is a reason to continue liking him because he is a rascist and the way he brought it to the fore was demeaning! Why on earth will he pinch his nose in front of a black player and then turn around to give a lame excuse of asking him to move back so he can breathe properly?The worse part of it all is that he has been given a minimal punishment - he has been banned for three matches.That is so appalling to me cos Lyon have already wrapped up the French league and their remaining matches definitely wont have any bearing on anything.Infact,I think it will be a chance for Gerard Houllier to rest some players and keep them fresh for next season.Between and betwixt,Baros wouldn't be sorely missed.He wasn't even fined.I don't know what more to say than tell him there are several African strikers are far far better than him.Skin colour doesn't hinder anything!

It's no secret that racism still exist in European football. Players like Samuel Eto'o have constantly faced racist chants, taunts and boos. Futhermore, the punishment meted out to these racists doesn't in any way, shape or form fit the crime.
