John Rocker: Still A Jackass

John Rocker still hasn't learned to play nice with others. Rocker is now pitching for the minor league Long Island Ducks. Apparently, as he left the field after giving up two runs, two hits, and two walks in one third of an inning, Atlantic City Surf fan Dave Macken yelled, "It's a long way from Atlanta."

According to Macken, Rocker replied, "I'm still a millionaire and you're a piece of [expletive]."

Said Rocker, in his own defense: "Call me what you want, but don't start cussing at me like that, that's just wrong." Interesting choice of words. "It's a long way from Atlanta" ... is that some sort of southern curse we northern types aren't aware of? Because I'm sure Mr. Macken wasn't aware he was cursing at Rocker when he said that. The only other explanation I can think of is that Rocker is still an immature idiot whose now subpar pitching ability has done nothing to humble him.

Some people never change.
