TOWSON, Maryland Tuesday, February 18, 2020 - Remember Aubrey Huff? He had several successful years playing major league baseball
for the Baltimore Orioles. He also played for quite a few other big league teams. He finally ended his career after the 2012 season.
He played his final three seasons with the San Francisco Giants.
You may even recall that the Giants won the 2010 World Series, and that Aubrey Huff was an instrumental part of that Giants' team.
In that campaign, the big man swatted some 26 home runs and drove home 96 runs. Huff added another home run and four more RBI's in the World Series against the Texas Rangers.
The Giants now are putting together a reunion of the 2010 World Series Team.
But guess what? Aubrey Huff has been informed that he will not be included in the festivities. Unless you live with your head in a bag, you've probably heard that the so-called City By The Bay is an abode of the very far left. But ole Aubrey Huff isn't a leftist. He probably has to strain a bit to be called a moderate. In reality, and like millions and millions of other Americans, including our elected President, Aubrey Huff is, well, a conservative. It isn't a crime. It isn't unusual. It is a very key component of the American Scene. In most of America, citizens wouldn't bat an eye if somebody were said to be a conservative. However, in far left San Francisco, Huff is making the big mistake of being an categorized as a conservative.
And because he is conservative, he can't be a Giant celebrant. His views, according to the San Francisco Giants, just don't fit in with the Giant Locker Room. This is what the San Francisco Giants the say.
Which is a lot of bunk. Back when the games counted, the bloody Giants couldn't have given a plug nickel about Huff's political views. The man could hit, especially in the clutch, and the Giants couldn't get enough of him. In point of fact, the Giants wouldn't have been in the bloody World Series were it not for Aubrey Huff.
Now, when Huff and many of the other 2010 Giants have ended their playing careers, the darn front office nerds want to make a lot of noise about Aubrey Huff's politics to the receptive minions in dear old far left San Francisco. Here is a point of fact the Giants and their genius front office is overlooking. Aubrey Huff never said if he was invited to be with his teammates he'd just have to drone on about his politics. Baseball is the kind of thing people indulge in to get away from politics. It is the Giants, not Huff, who are dragging politics into this. In doing so, they are absolutely discriminating against a man who has done nothing wrong. He helped the Giants win. Now, when everybody else on the 2010 team is reaping a little bit of the reward for winning, one man who played a huge role in the success of the team is getting screwed because he likes the President.
I'd say the Giants are hypocrites. In fact, I'm quite sure about it.
