Oh was he trying to exercise his free speech? Dummy, that does not exist. Not to pile on but freedom of speech as protected by the constitution guarantees he won't be thrown in jail for this. It doesn't protect him from everyone else knowing he's a giant piece of crap and not wanting to work with/employ him. Was I discussing the first amendment? No. There is no freedom of speech, either from the government or from corporations or from your fellow humans. Say something that isn't allowed and you get canceled and shunned from society. It's pathetic. I'd rather fight for anyone to say any god damned thing they want no matter how much I hate it because I do cherish freedom from the government and from the mob mentality that is now rampant in society. Just look at everyone piling on me right now trying to shut me up.

Oh was he trying to exercise his free speech? Dummy, that does not exist. Well, it's not like he was arrested. His right to free speech is fully intact. But he also let the world know that he's an unrepentant bigot, so he can assume full responsibility for how the rest of the world reacts to his words. After all, he is an adult. Unfortunately, that sort of abusive expression appears to run afoul of his former employer's code of personal conduct. Nice post. You stated it articulate and on point. It is better than “He is a f****** a**.” Netzer is one, but thank you for expression it like an adult.

He’s a piece of word I can’t use here. Total waste!! Hopefully this is it for his professional career. Sad part is his ideals still are out there. Good riddance. Red Sox deserve better human beings than that

Note that there was already a discussion in the "Where are they now" thread. I don't think we need to rehash it here.

Just look at everyone piling on me right now trying to shut me up. Freedom of speech by definition is the first amendment. Yes. I have seen no one here trying to shut you up just correcting the record. I don't get your position at all with respect to Netzler? Great you support his right to say whatever he wants even though, in this case, IMO it is clearly unacceptable thinking. If you don't agree that's fine it's well within your right but you also accept the Red Sox right to cut ties with someone who thinks like this and who publicly disparages the team's GM right? If so then no one is being "cancelled" by a "woke mob". The Red Sox simply don't want to do business with someone like this.

Yeah but the reference to us wondering why he was in the RL when that happened is prob fine.
Let's just not continue it in two places.

I see where you're coming from, but letting people say whatever they want without consequence risks making society less free and open.

It's going to be weird not seeing his cheering section, the Netzis, in the stands anymore...
