Who was here for the og thumbnail💀💀💀
Black Face Ruth 😂
💀
I was but forgot what it looked like. 😂
Black face baby Ruth is mad 😂😂
yup😂
Only OG’s remember the old thumbnail…
Tap Dancing Ruth
It was a good one
Bot
We all saw the old thumbnail….
So? You’ll keep watching because you’re not really offended you have just grown up to accept cancel culture. Cancel culture is for the weak minded.
@@Athlete1990Man you’re really upset about this aren’t you
You mean the one that sort of quoted people like Ty Cobb? Blame Ty Cobb.
@@bigpacthatseazye3462 I’m actually not upset about anything. I just find it hilarious that you’re trying to bully a content creator for something stupid. You’re stupid and trying to call it racist doesn’t make it racist. It just makes you stupid
@@sportsfansports3353Ty Cobb called Ruth a nigger because of Ruth’s behavior… not his ethnicity…
🦈👁️
Only real fans saw the original video lol
Only fans, you say?
@@Nunnayadambinesshaha 😂
We ain't forgetting the old thumbnail
What was on the original thumbnail? The one I seen says dealt with racism.. is that what it was?
Bot
bro doubling down on twitter he’s cooked
He refuses to back down
Yeah he’s a sexist + racebaiting, can’t accept he’s wrong and needs every excuse to be “right”. It’s a shame, he makes decent quality videos
You got me!
Fun fact Ted Williams was Mexican. His mother was a Mexican American and he was also a advocated for MLB to desegregation
From what I understand he was also an incredibly mean SOB, at least in his older age. He did have a great relationship with/ Tony Gwynn though.
@@outrlmts1879 yeah he did have anger issues and sucked as a father. But he did do some good like fight in Korea and advocated for minorities.
@@zmoney9701he fought in WW2 as well bro in the prime of his career
@@The_yeffy1 oh yeah totally forgot that he fly in Japan as well.
He seemed a bit ashamed of his Mexican side too-. It’s pretty sad.
We got babe Ruth being black before gta6
Side note: a third of Babe's 714 homeruns came after the ground rule double became a rule in 1929. Before then a ball that bounced over the wall was considered a dinger.
Thank you for reminding people,I've posted that a few times and people call me a liar.
Seriously??? Thats wild
@@wsmokr It's funny how people will label you a liar when there is such thing as Google. Although, the Babe did have a bunch of 450' outs before they moved the fence in to a reasonable distance. So maybe it all evens out.
@michaelraphael2160 Yeah it does even out excluding a lot of cheap hrs he hit in YS ,Fenway,and the Polo Grounds with the rf fence very short.
Also walk off homers didn't count unless he himself was the winning run. So if they were tied and he hit a 2 run homer to walk it off. Only the 1 run would score and it would be ruled a single.
Babe’s parent’s owned a Saloon bro, not a Salon 😂
Babes parents were both from Germany also, so he’s literally the opposite of black lol
@@ericemler8151agree
Hold on, he did say Salon. Dudes just posting shit with no thought.
OG thumbnail gang unite 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
I knew the last thumbnail was too much for UA-cam lol
What it look like
@@cambob42069 it had Babe Ruth on it and underneath it said "N****r Babe"
It was Slave Ruth colored black in MS paint
I’ve always assumed that babe must have been Italian or something which could explain the darker skin tone than most white people and black hair
Yeah I had also figured he was Italian
Bro thinks he’s slick for removing that old thumbnail
Bot comment #2
Bot
The old thumbnail was better actually
Shocked he didnt start talking about skull measurements
Bruhs wildin with this one 💀
The Ty Cobb quote in this video is suspect. It is accredited to Fred Lieb, a sportswriter who had previous beef with Cobb. And we all know about Cobbs recent revisionist history.
This indeed.
So sad Ty Cobbs legacy and name has been completely smeared by a lying scumbag
The original thumbnail was 100x better!! Lol. Keep up the good work, friend. Love the videos. This was an especially interesting one
Babe's dad could pass for Babe, so the illegitimate scenario is unlikely. Gerard Depardieu must be black because nose.
I see words, even censored ones, hurt people's feelings.
Indeed
Yes slurs are bad! Damn snowflakes
@@iTalkStudios I enjoyed the video and thought it was interesting. I can't say I've ever heard speculation around Babe Ruth's race. I always assumed he was white.
@@iTalkStudiosgreat video. Can you do a video on Moses Fleetwood Walker. The actual first Black baseball player in the MLB
I saw the video yesterday that I guess got deleted
The old thumbnail was goated
His father owned a Saloon not a salon.
Bro is bold to repost this after the OG title
It should earn him more subscribers.
Idiot
iTalk, bro, you gotta get the point dude
people got to calm down, I'm literally as white as it gets and I used to point out how Babe look exactly like my german descended grandpa. in fact my grandpa was darker than babe. no one ever questioned if my grandpa was black and guess what genetically virtually no one is 100% black or white like what would that really mean.
Just started watching your videos yesterday and have been absolutely hooked ever since
I really appreciate that. Thank you!!
people calling you racist over this might be the most stupid and overblown shit ever
I mean they’re trying to make a white guy black lmao
ITS BACK!!!
I’m so glad you decided to repost this video.
I was at work when the video came out but I looked for it and I thought I went crazy
I think they kept calling Babe those slurs because he interacted with African American people, including ballplayers. Like N lover, N this N that. I say this because I saw the movie "42" and saw a lot of people would call those things to people who interacted with Jackie Robinson. That was a movie, so I would imagine it was a lot worse in real life. That's my guess.
“Dealt with Racism” bro called a PR agency before he made another thumbnail 😂
How did you know
@@iTalkStudios because I work for one
@@iTalkStudios for the record I don’t think you’re racist. I just thought the trend your channel was on for baseball was intriguing and that one had a “woke” feeling behind it. Also you knew in this day and age the Hard R is gonna bring a crowd that loves canceling.
The curse of the bambino, he's gotta be Italian.
real ones know the og thumbnail
I thought he was half Native American. Could of sworn I heard that
There were plenty of Black baseball players in the majors in the late 1800’s…. I wonder why that’s never discussed, when this topic comes up?
That original thumbnail was something else but given the context it makes alot of sense.
Bro is really set on this topic lol
lol
Bot
Yet you think you're blacknfor saying bro
@@nickr3441?
@@nickr3441Bro sh*t up. You’re on every comment, sh*t up. Don’t you have anything better going on, then to comment “bOt” on every comment.
How about everyone meat riding the “can’t forget the OG thumbnail” most of yall don’t know
Babe Ruth was Irish and they were treated very similar to black people back in the day. You can find signs from that time in stores that said “No blacks, no dogs, no Irish”
Man U didn’t have to reup load the whole video lol 😭
Didn't expect to see a title like this for a iTalk Studios video
Bro, he was just tan from being in the sun too much. Y'all tan too, bro. 😂
That OG thumbnail was Based as fuck
Well people used to call italians the n word back then too just cuz they were dark, doesnt mean they were black though.
*What WAS the original thumbnail since nobody wants to just let those who missed it know.*
It's literally in the video
Made sure to change that thumbnail huh buddy?
Bot comment
@@Athlete1990 "sad to see you capitulated to the woke mob"
I didn’t see it but I’m guessing it was changed because of UA-cam flagging it
@@sadmarinersfan8935it was bound to get flagged, i mean it was a dumb move
@@Leninade-ze7pd it’s sad to see so many slow people like yourself follow this channel and post bot comments
LOLOLOLOLOL MANS GOT COOKED AND CHANGED THE THUMBNAIL
Thanks for the great content. Have a great Day.
Real ones know the original😂
Didn't the Ken Burns Baseball documentary discuss the rumors about Babe's race? Also, Babe's father owned a saloon, not a salon. They have the same French root but mean very different things in today's English.
I don’t think it discusses his lineage, but it does mention that one of Ruth’s nicknames when he was young was “****er lips”
Yes, rewatch the Ken Burns documentary. He goes into detail about the rumors of Babe being black. Also, there are interviews in the documentary where black people talk about how they assumed Babe was black. There’s also a video clip of black fans attending Babe’s funeral.
@@mmpessoaThank you! It's been a few years since I've watched it, but I was pretty sure I that it was discussed. That whole documentary is so well done! I have been hoping for them to do the 11th inning, but I have my doubts that they will at this point.
I’ve played baseball since the age of about nine years old, and I’ve never thought about this at all… And I’m black, glad I came across. It is an interesting topic.
You should do Ted Williams hiding his Mexican heritage next. After seeing his Mexican uncle overlooked he chose to hide it. Really interesting story.
Yup he from San Diego there’s a street called Ted Williams parkway whenever I drive down to Tijuana
Old thumbnail > New
An iTalk Studios classic
Yeah it’s back
Original thumbnail was something else
Babe Ruth being black is a YUUUUGE stretch 😂😂😂
Lets say he was black what differnce does it make today and how does it change anyones life today??It will be nothing but an interesting footnote.
I knew zero percent of this, so thank you for the history lesson. This is kind of exciting to look into.
Yooo the original thumbnail 😮😮
Desus and Mero would say he's Dominican
"Adolf enthusiast" 😂
Babe was the spitting image of his father. He wasn't illegitimate. His father. Now that's the question.
Babe family last name from Moms side.was Saenz.. His daughter talks about him going to Mexico and learning how to pitch from his Uncles... yep
His mothers last name was Schamberger.
@@chadwickwilliams7238 yes I knew that.. watch Ken Burns baseball doc.. I belive he put it out in the 90s..
I didn't see the old thumbnail. I'll have to check wayback machine.
This video is insane
ah so now you're gonna change that thumbnail
This has to be my favorite titlw to a video ever
It’s funny my great grandmother used to talk about” legends” like this. She swore until she was no longer living when she seen babe Ruth she thought he was a biracial man
Somewhere in the back of my mind I guess I always assumed he had Native American or Italian ancestory, although I don’t think i ever consciously thought about it until now.
I know he found the old thumbnail relatable
What if Babe Ruth watched this video
As someone who is biracial part white part Asian this story was interesting to me. Looking at his nose that’s where I see maybe he was biracial? Also as story told he was pro equality as well. It’s probably something though we’ll never know for sure but it was interesting to dive into.
Making things up for a lack of content is kinda insane
Who else is walking this for a second time? 😂
Lmao back again with a different thumbnail
YO he showed the old thumbnail 😭😭😭
When I first saw a picture of Babe Ruth when I was 7 years old, I thought he was black. He had a lot of the same features as my black family. Then I saw a color picture of him and said, "oh nvm". Fast forward to me being in my mid 30s with two babies that came out white with straight/curl non nappy hair(white wife, take that racist). My eldest has started to turn olivish color, which is the color that Babe was in that color picture.
So maybe he was mix race?
Spike Lee has been trying to prove this for more than 20 years
bro thinks we forgot about the old thumbnail
You're not black
We all saw the original thumbnail bro
Og thumbnail got taked down 💀💀💀
history will remember the old thumbnail
Screen shots especially from the channel baseball doesn’t exist. Wild to repost when the screen shot lives in infamy.
@@dobe46 your mom lives in infamy but we don’t talk about it
@@Athlete1990 really? We’re going to resort to that. If you are going to defend usage of that word you were obviously incapable of adult conversation in the first place.
Speaking of my mother yeah she’s been to Boston and she seen how racist it was and I had to tell her that that’s just how the city is. And her 40 years that she’s lived in this country. She has never been treated the way she’s been treated in Boston solely on the darker complexion of your skin.
I don’t expect much from you, Boston people. So go ahead and defend this worm and insult peoples mothers.
I guess the Fortnite profile picture is just too intimidating to have an adult conversation. You sack of poop.
@@Athlete1990 really? We’re going to go to juvenile things like talking about people’s mother? I guess if you can’t talk like an adult, you have to resort to things like that.
Who knew a Fortnite profile picture would scare people from having adult conversations.
But you have shown the type of character you have by defending the words he used.
iTalk will probably take this comment down too.
@@dobe46 it has nothing to do with your profile picture and everything to do with your uneducated comments. If you paid attention to the video and not just the thumbnail you might learn something, but I suspect you haven’t learned anything since the third grade.
Ted Williams had Mexican rut’s on his mother side if I’m not mistaken
Correct.
I wasn’t here for the original thumbnail BRING THAT ISH BACK 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Shout out to the 70%

What was the old thumbnail?
The N word like 3 times with a pic of Babe Ruth lol
But with a “*” in the place of the “i”
Oh nvm
It was censored. You’ve got 12 year olds going crazy over it
@@Athlete1990lots of little kids on here
I want the old thumbnail
According to The Kid Mero, Babe Ruth was actually Dominican🤣
The discourse this caused on twitter 💀💀💀💀
Moses Fleetwood Walker Was the first black player.
New thumbnail I see 😏😏😏
Even if he was he past enough so he didn't break the color barrier but ty Cobb it said wouldn't room with him and made a racial or racist comment about why not
I miss the old thumbnail
I have been critical of your very common negative videos as of late. I love your videos and think you’re better than just posting negative things about players and teams. This video proves what greatness you can create. This is a great video. Bravo!
I have to disagree. I do not think it changes a whole lot, if anything at all.
First, it shouldn't be shocking that Babe Ruth may have some African ancestors in his DNA-makeup. Even if he wasn't the illegitimate son of his mother and a black bartender. Most Americans are of mixed race to a degree. When Elizabeth Warren was in the news a while back, it was mentioned that all Americans have some percentage of American Indian DNA in them. While many Americans will consider themselves "white," you scratch the surface and you find a variety of DNA markers in us.
So that Babe Ruth may have some African DNA in him shouldn't be all that shocking.
Second, I don't see how it changes how we think of Babe Ruth. No one should go out and try to claim he was the "real" first black player. That will always be Jackie Robinson. No one really treated Babe Ruth as a black man. Further, he never presented himself as a black man. They made fun of his looks, but no one said he was actually black. He did not go through was Jackie Robinson went through.
Babe Rush was the most significant player of his era. At this point, I think his real ancestry (whatever that may be) is, essentially, irrelevant.
Good job Tucker if you get tired of UA-cam u have a future at Fox News
