Thread: Hayden Cantrelle preparing for every crazy option with MLB draft

  1. UL Baseball Hayden Cantrelle preparing for every crazy option with MLB draft

    Like most spring sports athletes these days, UL junior shortstop Hayden Cantrelle has a lot of potentially chaotic scenarios to ponder these days.

    Unlike many of them, however, Cantrelle is part of a small group of Major League Draft prospects that’s been in the dark since the college season was halted March 12.

    “There’s a lot of guys that are going to get gypped out of the draft, because they didn’t have their season play out.”

    Gypped as in Gypsys. Good Lord. Not sure slurs help the draft stock. Hopefully misquoted.

    It's a common expression. Don't think its considered some form of racial slur.

    The word has worked its way into a dictionary, but its origin is derogatory towards a Gypsy.

    Until I read this thread, I had no idea that a Gypsy was a race or nationality. Even so, one of the definitions states someone without a permanent home and gives an example of a carnival worker!

    But in this day and age, I guess we shouldn’t be surprised to know that there’s now another group of victims or people to be offended over something. SMH

    Just because one is not aware, does not mean something does not exist. It just makes one ignorant
