Place to put my Nonsense Thread.

Kansas has had some badass crackers. We've got one now in Christian Braun
I feel like the NFL, including TE's, QB's and linemen, is much more diverse than the NBA is. At least as far as Americans playing, I know basketball is much more international. Something about white dudes not being able to jump very high :)

I always think of this scene when my friend's wife is over. Puerto Rican women are all the same.



a couple of nip slips for your viewing pleasure.
 
When did these awards start going off the GD tracks. Best artist, best actor, best movie, worlds sexiest, person of the year, athlete of the year. Does it ever actually go to the best? Are these bought and paid for? Like who actually believes Biles is even close to athlete of the year?

I try not to overthink women. IT's best that I just play the neanderthal and let the wife explain.
My buddy's wife has just a Puerto Rican accent, not the NY/Puerto Rican accent. But talks the same way as Perez in that scene. One time she said that her neck was sore after dramatically rubbing it and looking at him for a couple of minutes. He never said anything. She flips out and starts yapping about how she said her neck hurt and he didn't even care. My wife loves her for some reason, I couldn't put up with her shit, myself. Don't know how my friend has been married to that shrew for so long.

Whether or not Simone should be athlete of the year is one thing. But she did have a legitimate reason to back out of competing. She didn't quit on her team anymore than a QB who tears his ACL quits on his team.

'Twisties' is a stupid name for a thing but it's apparently a very real issue in gymnastics that can cause gymnasts to literally break their spines. If I had an ailment that made it considerably more likely I'd land on my head and snap the bones in my neck, I'd take a seat, too.

Wasn't she back in a couple of days? I thought she was having anxiety or something.

of course I know who they are. I'd like to know what you mean my "Rothchilds and their ilk". Assuming you mean what I think you mean that is an extremely offensive, ignorant and anti-semetic thing to say. Only people who subscribe to the anti-semeitc playbook go down that route since that is basically anti-semite mantra 101.

Next you're going to say that Gibson doesn't hate all Jews, just the ones who murdered Jesus.

“Their ilk” refers to powerful cronies and representatives like Soros and Kissinger.

In his famous rant, he was talking about those who are “responsible for all the wars in the world.” It’s pretty clear who he has animosity toward and it’s not Joe stockbroker in NYC.

Gibson’s mistake was calling them Jews. They’re Khazars who “converted” to Judaism centuries ago to serve their banking interests.

Its not one thing, its the only thing. Its called "athlete of the year " for a reason. Not sure what criteria she could have possibly met that others didnt far exceed.

It was something called the twisties. My daughter does gymnastics and they have talked about it there as well. I think she did have some anxiety at some point over the sexual assault stuff but I don't screw with questioning that sort of thing. I've seen enough that I know those issues can be very legit. However, the danger of doing some of the moves with what is basically the yips is why she didn't compete. Anyone making fun of her for that is just taking a low blow because they don't like here for some weird personal reasons.

Anyone saying she shouldn't be Athlete of the Year is a different thing. She didn't compete in several events, which probably helped her team medal but still. She didn't compete in them so saying she should be AofY is very reasonable.

So she got AofTY with having the twistie and not able to perform. She had a reason she couldn't perform and didn't perform. I don't care what she's looks like, what she represents. What did she do to deserve the award?

I'm open to having it explained to me.

Wasn’t she struggling, then pulled out of the team event and then competed in one of the single events. Yea I have a hard time believing she got the “twisties” and then got over it.

Brown nose is a new thing that I didn't realize was offensive. I do
now.

Every single person who I know who brown noses is white. We had training on it.

I'm starting to get it and able to adapt. As a ginger I know how words hurt. I am practicing on learning new offensive words.

Yeah, not sure anyone here is really saying she should have won it.

She only competed in specific events. It is a mental thing having to do with jumping or landing or something when you are in the air. From what my daughter says it only really impacts certain events but it is extremely dangerous in those specific events. Did she make a bunch of excuses? She basically said it was all the rest of her team that won and that she cost them a gold. If she competed in the team event with those issues the team probably wins nothing. She knew she would screw them. It wasn't some honorable ordeal or anything IMO but it also wasn't whatever else some are trying to make it out to be.

I mean, what do you think happened? She was tired and wanted to screw her team out of the gold? The simplest explanation actually makes the most sense.

Who said it was offensive? And why?

My work hired someone to come in for sensitivity training. Imagine that on a bunch of middle aged mixed races guys trying to make a buck. Our salesforce is easily 80% black.

Someone said something about a guy brown nosing. Owners brought in a sensitivity training to get ahead of it.

Our sales team is the most racist, vile, masochist don't give a f bunch of deviants.

I'd be banned here in a second in a parroted the truth accepted by my coworkers.

Why did they say it was offensive though? Insulting to poop?

Have you ever heard of the book, Truely tasteless jokes? It came out in the 80's. Imagine that but without 80's filters. White dudes are attacked constantly. Black dudes are attacked constantly by coworkers. We really don't give a shit as it keeps us on our toes and to be honest. no one apologizes for being racist. Kentucky racism is nothing compared to Memphis racism. The most vile, cut to the bone racist shit is said constantly while ppl are selling weed out of our sales meeting. I guess that why nothing here gets to me and I think it's a little cute.

My self, I let my sales talk shit. I bring up they need richer customers and how mine are better due to credit and downpaymentts. They bring up how their customers pay cash and don't need credit.

They/I know, we're all real and just trying to make money.

Of course I or they could never say the stuff we say IRL on any message board. With that said, we have an understanding and we get along like the best of friends.

Nah she was shitting the bed and broke. She’s not going to be the first or last athlete that breaks under pressure. It happens, which makes this lol worthy that’s she’s athlete of the year. This would be like giving Greg Norman athlete of the year in 86.

I mean, even if she did mentally break that would be reasonable considering all the crap that went down with the sexual assault stuff but from all reputable accounts it was more the danger of competing. Roll with the weird hating on some random gymnast for no reason (that we are aware of at least). Not sure why it makes some of you all feel better to go with this but it isn't that surprising.

All this extreme somewhat irrational hating on Lebron, Rittenhouse, Trump, Biles, etc.... Some people need to lash out for some reason. We would all be better off to focus on our hatred of Coach K tbh.

Maybe I'm being backwards, but we're still talking about her getting Time Athlete of the Year?

I didn't start the convo hating her but hating the Times for naming her athlete of the year. I don't hate her, but I recognize that she choked in one of the biggest moments of her career. Luckily, she already accomplished everything she did the previous Olympics.
