Don’t paint with a broad brush...I’m an old white kinda rich hillbilly from Tennessee and Martin Daniel can kiss my ass.

I’m just shocked he called him Cassius instead of “Toby”.

Actual draft dodgers, though, have his approval:

I don’t believe it. An old, rich hillbilly from Tennessee has issues with anyone not of the same race/religion/social class/etc?!? Shocking!

Lest anyone too young to know might think the draft dodger angle is the biggest insult in this tweet, refusing to call him Ali, and instead insisting on calling him Clay was the racist dog whistle of choice back then. Racist whites refused to do so for years after.

Cassius is a good, pagan, Roman name, godsdammit.

There isn’t one single athlete in the history of the world as revered as this man was.

That fight is so goddamn unfair it’s not even funny. Completely one-sided, an all-out slaughter from start to finish. I mean, how was Superman supposed to measure up? This issue must’ve been Jimmy Olsen’s wet dream.

There are so very few athletes who are completely synonymous with their sport. Babe Ruth and Baseball. Michael Jordan and Basketball. Skip Bayless and Being Wrong as Fuck About Sport.

If you haven’t seen When We Were Kings, you should use this as an excuse to watch it.

Muhammad Ali was the best athlete of the 20th (or any other) century.

Yoko is like a comfort blanket at this point. If she’s not in tweet beat my whole day gets thrown off.

I need to see what Yoko is talking and thinking about daily, addiction?

I don’t think he is going to follow Kim’s lead on this one.

Or play at 62% effort level, since they make 62% of what their male counterparts do.

That’s exactly what youre doing.

I’ve never understand how “severe impact” is calculated or applied. Isn’t 6 years in prison a “severe impact” on... anyone? It’s not like this guy is supporting anyone financially or has kids.

But??
