1. Many MLB players from Latino nations don't or won't

speak English.

For some they can't. For others they just lack the confidence to do it publicly. Most of these guys come from impoverished nations and it's not like pro hockey players who come from Finland who already speak 4 languages including English. SO I respect that and wish to give them time, but if you live here 10 years and can't speak the language, you're a bozo. My wife lived in Germany less than 2 years and couldn't help but learn that language. Thus, if you live here for 10 years and fail to learn English you just are not even trying.

5. 😂😂😂

For those upset others coming here do not speak English, how many white migrants ever learned or now know a work of Native Americans cultures?
As long as Non English speakers or people of color perform in their arena of choice to help our teams win, they are good to go.
