I don't think that race or sexual persuasion enter into PBUC's decision at all. Sex and age probably do a little.
Money and marriage don't affect PBUC's decision, but might affect the umpire's willingness to stick it out over the long haul.

I would like to think that is the case but what I believe is the case is comparisons. Would you as a PBUC guy want to take the chance on a married man or an unmarried man given the long, low incomeless years in MiLB including the time away from home?
By money I meant money to go to the various schools, travel etc.
Sexual persuasion? What do you really think the realities are there?
Race? What do you really think the realities are there? Especially with the incoming Latino/Spanish players (fans) and lack of black players in the farm systems (by %)?
