Deadspin interviews John Rocker (and his girlfriend):

And you two met when she was interviewing you? Because I want to make it clear that I’m not hitting on either one of you.

Yeah, all of her questions were, “Do you have a girlfriend?” “Would you like my number?” I just looked down her shirt, saw what I needed to see and moved on. (Laughs.) I took a leap of faith, because she had a long coat on, and she could have had big birthin’ hips or something.

…

Alicia, I have to ask: Do you agree with all his political views?

Alicia: Well, there are many things we disagree on, yes, but at least I see where he’s coming from. I feel like part of my job with him is to help people get past this whole “He’s John Rocker” thing, because anything that comes out of his mouth is going to be misconstrued, no matter what he says. I want to help facilitate that.

Rocker: Well, it’s not like it’s her job or anything. It’s not like I said, “Well, I need to hire a black girlfriend to make me look better.”

People have said that.

It’s almost hard to believe this guy’s career went in the toilet because he made horrifically-offensive statements!

Full interview here. Believe it or not, I haven’t even posted the craziest parts.
