Imitates Spanish, jokes that Pedro Guerrero’s wife is a cleaning lady, questions why he isn’t speaking English in a country without an official language… and I haven’t even gotten to the line about the “friendly colored guy” and Don getting sick if he touches him… pretty sure he could have lined up some less bigoted jokes and gotten just as many laughs.

[@rmartin7558]

@@Jacob-lv1pz Lighten up, dude. If it was so offensive why'd you watch it? Turn it off. I'm sure I'd find Queer As Folk or Sex and the City and all those shows you like offensive, that's why I don't watch them.

[@Jacob-lv1pz]

@@rmartin7558 I like baseball and this happens to be a video that focuses on that very sport. It’s crazy to imagine that someone would have to watch something in order to understand it’s content… This type of comedy lives in the “good ol’ days” for a reason. Today, people are able to laugh without throwing in that splash of bigotry.

[@lupowins]

@@Jacob-lv1pz Today young people aren’t smart enough to realize the difference between bigotry and jokes. Back then, people were. If it was offensive comics like Rickles wouldn’t have had a career and been respected by people of all backgrounds.

[@Jacob-lv1pz]

@@lupowins These jokes came a decade before we even had access to internet. Come join us in the present where information is easily accessible and comedians still manage to write funny jokes.

[@paulyman34]

OMG. Don. Classic!!

[@filemonruiz7363]

Everytime I see this I die of laughter. 😂🤣🤣

[@lupowins]

Every time someone under the age of 25 sees this they curl up in a fetal position and cry uncontrollably. Rickles was great, everyone was fair game and they were smart enough to get that he was poking fun at stereotypes and was never mean spirited.

[@artnwityr]

The way that kiss went down had me rolling!

[@LaMostraVia]

This really happened during the 78 season. When the entire team was in the locker room Tommy told the team he brought in a spiritual doctor to hopefully end a 6 game losing streak they were in and it was in fact Don Rickles and it was way funnier than this. They were in 3rd place at the time then went 34-18 to end the season finishing in first place

[@MarkWilliams-dt1ty]

Could not have happened then. Matlock was with SG 77-79, traded to Pitt in 79 and stayed there till 85 when he was sent to the dodgers. Likely late 86 or 86 as Don mentioned he got out of Pittsburgh.

[@crackerjack9320]

Legendary performance!

[@shepshape2585]

Don was one of the funniest human beings ever, but this would never go over now. People would get insulted and he'd be cancelled. As a matter of fact, a lot of things that were said on tv back in the 70's and 80's would get people cancelled these days.

[@dangc8315]

That why the 80s were great. We had a sense of humor. Far cry from the painful, daily offended cry bullies of the last ten+ years

[@robertguinn5863]

True but sad. They had some awesome times just being human and joking around.

[@tomf429]

"You touched me, now I'll get sick"...only Rickles could say that and get a laugh.

[@seanhitchcock2497]

I got to ride around in a golf cart with Tommy at Dodgertown in Vero Beach when I was 8 years old (his final season as manager). Even though I was and still am a Yankee fan it's a great memory I'll always cherish (he even made his godson sign the Dodgers hat my father bought me, even though he's a Tigers fan)

That sounds so condescending as if ''people of color'' need you to defend them. I assume that you're white, so why did you feel compelled to speak for Don Rickles about something that happened 35 years ago? BTW, you don't seem at all concerned about his insults to white people.

I'm tired of the political correctness police, let's stop confusing racial discrimination with racism. Racism only has the impact an individual allows it to have, we are a species of many different delightful cultures and it's foolish to suggest how one is better than the other, if you are proud of your heritage then let that be your peace of mind and don't allow your tribalism or spiritualism to control your emotions or reactions towards another's stereotype point of view, just live life right, it's very simple, don't physically harm anyone, invade their space or steal their property.

[@bobbaker8263]

If you don't think free speech has been completely obliterated, I dare any entertainer to recreate these jokes on live TV, see what happens. Free speech is laying in a coffin of its own somewhere between Lasorda and Rickles
