Texas Ranger Ian KInsler Takes Shot At DeSean Jackson And Michael Vick

What was Texas Rangers second baseman Ian Kinsler trying to say when he took a verbal shot at Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson and Eagles quarterback Michael Vick?

According to Richard Durrett of ESPNDallas.com Kinsler made the following statement as a way of expressing his confidence that his teammate Michael Young was going to honor his contract, come to training camp and play the season as a Texas Ranger.

“This isn’t DeSean Jackson or Michael Vick or Manny Ramirez,” Kinsler said. “Michael Young is a professional. It would be completely out of his personality not to be here.”

Clearly Kinsler is insinuating that Jackson, Vick and Ramirez aren’t professionals.

It isn’t a big deal, but the statement could and should have been avoided. Why is he making public statements about people he doesn’t even know very well?

Maybe Kinsler is feeling his oats because he and the Rangers have a “Joe Banner World Series Title”,

Another Juice Head expressing his hate……… LOL…… Get your number’s up Kinsler and perhaps play baseball with out the ROID’S like all those Texas BUTT Rangers Fudge Packers do……. For a man to pass judgement about class or professionalism…….. Maybe he needs to take a look in the mirror……. Another Dallas hater!!!!! GO EAGLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

are these baseball players (burhle too) jealous that after the Superbowl and at the start of spring training, many fans are still talking NFL with the labor stuff going on? I think that’s it, and frankly, that’s pathetic.

Kinsler knows that the Rangers went as far as Cliff Lee took them last year, so he is mad at Philly. It is to be expected.

OFF THE SUBJECT:

I was and still am a big fan of the pittsburgh pirates when we had Bobby Bonillia, Barry Bonds (when he was skinny), Jack Morris, Tim Wakefield, Danny Neagle, Steve Cooke, Don Slaught, Jay Bell, Jeff King and Andy Van Slyke…… The Pirates just stopped spending on good players and since than have been terrible to even watch………. SMH……… I wish they will make moves to make them a threat in the national league…….. But we’ll be the Bad News Bears like we’ve been for the past 15years….LOL!!

@Shiller……. Hell to the No…… My brother!!!!! I hate the steelers…….. I’m a die hard Eagles fan bro!!!!…….. I like the Phillies as well……… But me being a pirates fan since a kid makes me still have a little love for them……. They’ve been terrible through the years and I cant give up on them…… Watching the pirates play with “major league players”! is just commical through the years……LOL……. I think they should just shut the stadium down and build a team in Virginia my home town so we can have a professional team in VA………

jroc – gotcha. Only problem I see with shutting the stadium down is that it’s actually a GREAT park. (nothing great happens inside though)

@Shiller……. Remember when Strausburg struck out like 15 pittsburgh players his first game in the majors……. And I my self said…… “Anybody can look good against the pirates”……. But he treated every other team the same by pitching the same way he did against the Pirates…….. I’m a believer in Strausburg……. He’ll be one of the ELITE’s within the years!!!

yeah, I remember that. But I’m not sure on him. Time will tell. I just feel like the hype was too much and that he will continue to blow out his arm trying to launch a rocket on every pitch…
