00:00Duran colon obscene gesture due to fan crossing the line so Jaron Duran once again has an
00:06interaction with the fan in the stands over what he claimed was uh uh I don't know what you would
00:13say him uh taunting him over his mental health go kill yourself he said that the fan said he gave
00:18the fan the finger and that's now in the headlines man so what are your thoughts on that story so
00:22this is to me this is another one that you can't look at it from just one side and when
00:27I say just
00:27one side like a lot listen the fan behavior is reprehensible of course it is always has been
00:33that has never changed fans can be complete total a-holes and cross a line but the fact is that
00:39fans get drunk fans act like idiots and they stay they say stuff the player also can't reply to
00:46everything and you know especially with gestures that are offensive in a public setting when they're
00:53supposed to represent some sort of standard and I say that because this is my biggest issue with
01:00Duran is how many times has this happened it happened in Kansas City it happened in Cleveland
01:06now it has happened in Minnesota and it happened at Fenway Park where he yelled a homophobic slur
01:12to someone sitting in the stands and you know what the guy in the stand said to him on that
01:16one
01:16where he called him the f word or whatever yeah tennis rackets right he said the fan shouted that
01:22Duran needed a tennis racket to hit to which he turned around and said you you know yeah so yeah
01:29it's four by my count it's four so 2022 who's held back by Alex Verdugo after dropping a couple of
01:35balls there was that one there's the tennis rackets gay slur incident yelling at fans in Cleveland like
01:40you mentioned and then the middle finger of the crowd last night so four so the last two he claimed
01:45that they were taunting him for mental health reasons where he had a prior history before that was
01:52disclosed publicly and no one knew anything about his struggles and they were just giving him generic
01:57taunts that they would give any ballplayer good point and he reacted the way that he reacted so I
02:02just you know I think people should understand that with him so no they don't though they don't they
02:10don't because they they look at him as they look at his mental health history and not to downplay that
02:15but because of what he talked about in that Netflix documentary people immediately side with him where he
02:20and they just ignore the fact that he's also a hothead and doesn't know how to deal with this
02:24you know in a case like last night so if that's what that fan said horrible but if that's what
02:28he
02:28said then immediately point him out to people to work at the stadium and have him thrown out
02:34if that's what he said so let me just start with that if that if the fan did actually say
02:38that you go
02:39kill yourself he should be tossed out of the stadium and again banned for the season all that
02:45agreed I have zero patience for loud mouth a-hole fans none zero
02:51you
