Then they fired him for making detrimental remarks towards Pinella since he is Latino.

I never even knew Pinella was Latino.
I'm pretty sure his heritage is Spanish, as in Spain, not Latin America.

Are Spaniards known for stealing wallets?

I don't know. But they almost never have insurance on their pick up trucks.

During their broadcast of Game 3 of the 2006 American League Championship Series, broadcast colleague Lou Piniella, who is of Spanish descent, made an analogy involving the luck of finding a wallet, and then briefly used a couple of Spanish phrases. Lyons responded by saying that Piniella was "hablaing Espanol" -- Spanglish for "speaking Spanish" -- and added, "I still can't find my wallet. I don't understand him, and I don't want to sit close to him now."

I watched that live, and it was a great piece of sports casting.

The "African-American" taco comment sure obliterates the political atmosphere of correctness :rolleyes:. Anybody want to guess why Taco Bell chose that color of taco shell? Why not call it what it is..... black..... OMG, the PC helicopter force is coming after me. Ross Perot, save me!
