GYERO ARCHIVE

[KingLlama]

- What Clark said. Naomi Osaka is interviewed in Time this week, and expresses disbelief that people disagree with her stances on kneeling during the anthem, etc. It's not just frustration that people don't agree with their viewpoints...now they can't even wrap their minds around the fact that people don't share their same views.

- Maybe I'm just not reading the right articles, but I don't see any recruiting buzz around IU/Woodson. I see plenty of mentions of Hubert, some of Scheyer, but none of IU. Not that the program was already angling for top 20 guys anyway, but I thought there would have been SOME juice with a new, NBA-experienced hire. But they're not showing up on many/any lists that I've seen.

- A guy who I wish I could have watched in his prime....Reggie Jackson. Seeing old grainy clips of him on those late-70's Yankees teams, they're just electric. He owned that city during their title runs...name chants, a candy bar, a nickname that still sticks 40 years later. By the time I was watching baseball, he was playing for the Angels and trying to assassinate the queen.

- PTI is right....I've never seen anyone under 60 post on FB that their account has been hacked. How are they accessing the site...through a ColecoVision? That age group always cracks me up by being the ones who share those posts that say "I BET NOBODY OUT THERE EVER ATE A TOMATO FRESH FROM THE GARDEN, SHARE IF YOU HAVE".

- Daughter used a couple of those disposable cameras during vacation and has asked me to find a place to get the film developed. Might as well plan on paying for it with an oversize check and a feather pen.

1 maybe, maybe 2 of those skanks I would even consider.

And how many would consider you?

PBs articles read as if he knows his takes are completely crazy, but he is doubling on the craziness and committing to the take. He learned that in GYERO. So props to him for that. And he knows his lane. Super out there liberal woke sports guy. Never back down from a take.

 

[WayneDougan]

I'm also surprised that Naomi Osaka, who spent all her childhood playing tennis and only graduated from a virtual high school, doesn't have better critical thinking skills.

 

[wcc31]

I kind of believe those types of people are extremely impacted by differing opinions and how people view them. Regardless of political affiliation- being hurt by differing opinions is why they become so emboldened in their own views without a rational ability to discuss matters.

I think it’s more echo chamber- surrounding oneself with only those who see things as you do.

 

[WayneDougan]

Super out there liberal woke sports guy.

Not many of those out there! Way to fill a niche!

I guarantee his Twitter post of this article is full of his brethren pumping him up.

 

[wcc31]

If there anything that gets sports journos MORE boned up than predicting disaster for an upcoming Olympics?

Was about 10-12 years old in mid 70's in metro NY area, only thing I read was sports section, between Reggie, Billy Martin, and the Yankees it was a great time to be a kid, Jealous of the kids who were going to World Series games, where Reggie hit 3, because their dad's were bigwigs at some banks in NYC while I had to watch on tv. Lasting memory, when I thought all was lost, Chambliss hits the home run to win the pennant. Fans jumping over the wall to run onto the field, wishing you could be there. Great times indeed.

This has been the play of journos in just about every covid article I've read. You can push your fear, create any insane version of the story you want and all you have to do is add a 'possibly' or a 'could happen' and you can always walk it back later. This is gaslighting.. The integrity of the media is non-existent these days. PB's article will generate clicks and that's all that matters to them. if you thought it was about open discussion, welcoming counter-points or even attempting to inform/educate then you're reading the wrong stuff.


that is more contagious and potentially more deadly than those we have dealt with over the past 18 months.

You know what else can potentially happen if the Olympics aren't cancelled? It doesn't become an atrocity.

FFS, PB, get a grip and go drive staples into your dick if you're that miserable with life.

Actually like Carolina’s lineup … if Hubert can coach.

 

[UKRob 73]

So you hate the Olympics but like UNC.....gotcha.

 

[btodd0224]

Social media is the replacement for tabloids.
The only difference is there’s now millions of them instead of just a few in the grocery store checkout lanes.

I love the Olympics. Just hate:

Conservatives
Protestants
Southerners

How do you feel about their football team? Because evidently they’re very concerned about the National Championship playoff.

This covers everyone hoss.

- Are we to the point in football that either Mark needs to move “up” or we get caught cheating?

That red headed SOB has a bottomless hat filled with rabbits!

Jealous we can talk to God are you?

True colors being shown. Sad.

You still believe in God? Believe in Santa too?

 

[Col. Angus]

Every time that cats fan feller posts I believe in God a little less.

 

[WayneDougan]

You still believe in God? Believe in Santa too?

My biggest wish is that there’s a grandstand next to the Pearly Gates where I can sit and heckle you non-believers when you get damned to an eternity of burning in hell.

Wayne, buddy, I think you may have misunderstood Jesus’ teachings.

Don't usually post in this thread, but want to add this Reggie story told by a fellow Yankee, Nettles I think. He said he bought a Reggie candy bar once. When he opened it, it told him how good it was.

Man I loved Reggie Jackson as young lad. I still remember, as a 4yo, watching that 77 WS with my old man. The night he hit those bombs cemented his legacy in my mind. The 78 WS was orgasmic for a wee AW. When we would go to a game at Busch stadium I always got get one “goody” at the merchandise stand. Back then they had replica hard hats of every team. I had an A’s, Yankees, and Angels hat because those were teams he played for. Not to mention he was a bad ass that pretty much swung for the fences each at bat. I even had a black wooden bat that I used in little league that I had wrapped white tape around.

Here is one of my favorite Reggie moments

Wayne, buddy, I think you may have misunderstood Jesus’ teachings.

I missed a lot of Sunday School.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Lmao That Marrow clip is the biggest recruiting boss meme that exists.

Eating Fritos, listening to Kodak Black mumble like these kids LOVE, nodding, vibing.

Perfection. Come to UK, be a part of the #Culture

That’s what it do.

 

[wcc31]

The party of open mindedness!!

I speak for myself.

 

[august-west]

My brother and I were pretty much hit or miss at going to Sunday School. As I’ve grown older I’m pretty sure the times we did go was when my old man wanted to get lucky.

 

[WynnDuffy]

Y’all need to repent. Lots of blasphemy in here.

I gave my oldest sons a golf cart ride to an ancient cemetery, where I had them hug a statue of Jesus and say a Hail Mary. I figure that makes up for skipping Mass for most of true summer.
