Red Sox star Jarren Duran suspended 2 games after calling fan a homophobic slur

Major League Baseball and the team issued the suspension after Duran's utterance was captured on a live telecast at Fenway Park on Sunday.

Major League Baseball and the Red Sox suspended Boston outfielder Jarren Duran for two games Monday after he called a fan a homophobic slur in an outburst captured on a telecast of Sunday's game against the Houston Astros.

The unpaid suspension begins immediately, excluding Duran from Monday night's game at Fenway Park against the Texas Rangers. Duran's prorated salary for the suspended game days is being diverted to PFLAG (Federation of Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays), MLB and the team said in a joint statement.

Duran made the remark Sunday night as he was at bat in the bottom of the sixth inning at Fenway. Video from the NESN telecast captured a fan heckling Duran, saying he would need a tennis racket to connect with a pitch. Duran responded by calling the man the slur.

He can only speak like that as he repeated slams his 8in cock into my moist mussy.

Never liked this guy.

R1 a fan was heckling Duran when Duran was at bat by saying, "you need a tennis racket!" a few times, and Duran shouted to him, "Shut up you fucking f*ggot."

Someone has a mic on and it was very clear.

He apologized profusely.

Maybe he didn't really mean it, but it was just a R-R-R-R-R-Reflex...flex-flex-flex-flex!

Oh, Boston is just the best city ever in which to reveal yourself as a slur-spewing homophobic bigot. I still gleefully remember going to a standup comedy show there more than 20 years ago where a comic's act was mostly mocking gay people. It bombed horribly, by the halfway point he was getting no applause or laughter, just silent glares, and sweating like Dolph Lundgren in that Old Spice commercial.

Why isn't he allowed to say what he clearly feels?

Why can't white people use the N word, but they call each other it all the time?

A sports star or celebrity uses the C word in conversations all the time with their friends, but they're forbidden to use it publicly?

The rules are certainly not close to clear.

LoL, r10, as much as you want to pretend they aren't, they're *quite* clear.

The rules are clear: R10's mom should've done a post-birth abortion and thrown him into a grease fire.

His name is JARREN, and he looks like he's from a trailer park dominated by single gene pool from which his mother took one too many splashes.

Apparently, inbreeding is a common practice in various sports.

He can apologize all he wants but it's very telling that as soon as he gets angry his brain goes to what is to him the most insulting thing: being a faggot.

r10 is also:

*Kamala - "I'm Speaking!"*

[quote]No matter her code or hood or color, she must not go down the trap of condescension, especially when confronted by the opposing side.

[quote]She showed a taste of it when answering a reporter's question yesterday about her lack of interviews. Like, "can't you see I'm busy, get away..." Or, I'll do one when I'm damn ready".

[quote]Just politely answer the question.

Yeah, r10, she best not get uppity.

When I was in junior high and high school outside Boston "faggot" was interchangeable as an insult with just about anything. "Shut up you fucking asshole" meant the same as "shut up you fucking faggot."I don't know why, and it sucked, but that's the way it was, But that was a long time ago, and I don't know if the guy is a native Bostonian and it's still no excuse for being an ignorant asshole.

How many girls were getting called faggot, r17?

by Anonymousreply 19August 13, 2024 10:24 PM

Good point R19. Girls were usually "Fucking Hos" or "Fucking Sluts"

Jarren is a stupid-ass name.

Look for the MAGA “Christians” to sell out his jersey.

Oh who cares, that word and it’s use will not be going away in the foreseeable future. Just ignore and keep moving forward.
