Cross off the Cross

In his major league debut Lastings Milledge wore a 4-inch cross around his neck that hung out from his jersey. The wooden cross was so large that it covered up part of the Mets crest on his chest. But that bling was ancient history yesterday, as Milledge was ordered by manager Willie Randolph to tuck it in his shirt.
Milledge obliged without hassle and the cross hung in his locker, rather than around his neck.
According to SCZA, Randolph said “It’s okay to express your religion…but it’s just not part of the uniform. I was afraid he was gonna knock himself out if it hit him in the head."

all praise to Allah
