Why did everyone have to be like that. Everyone was so mean towards him whenever he just so talented why. Why did everyone have to be like that towards him if he was the most talented player on the field. IT was pretty bold to go from the African American league to the all-white league. Why did people have to be like that toward him? Why did everyone resent him whenever he was talented, and how did he not quit.

Jackie Robinson switched to MLB where it was a white league. IT was during segregation so it was really bold. Why did the whites not like him if he was really talented. IT doesn't make sense. WOuldn't they cheer for him and be happy and want him to win. The question is why was everyone a jerk towards him if he was just so talented?
