May Have to Rethink my Hatred of Phil Jackson & Tony Larussa
Posted: Thu Jul 01, 2010 1:57 pm
For many, many years I've had an extreme dislike for these two coaches, for a myriad of reasons. But that may all be changing...
First, Phil comes out and supports the illegal immigration bill (AZ 1070) during the NBA playoffs.

Then, this:Phil Jackson caused a pretty big controversy by saying that he agrees with Arizona's new draconian immigration law and it's hitting the news pretty hard right before they begin their playoff series against Steve Nash and the Phoenix Suns.

Politics surely do make strange bedfellows....St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa says he supports Arizona legislation calling for tougher enforcement against illegal immigrants.
Opponents of the law have called for Major League Baseball to move the 2011 All-Star Game out of the state.
La Russa says Arizona has a problem that the national government has failed to remedy. The manager, who lives in northern California, spoke this week before a game in St. Louis between the Cardinals and Arizona Diamondbacks.
on them for taking a public position...
