Ok, which other events has he participated in that cause him to deserve this much criticism? I’m not saying Lebron is perfect, but I have a hard time finding a better superstar athlete (let alone one who as been famous since age 16) who has been as good (publicly) as him. If his worst events are “The Decision” and…

I don’t remember them really ever NOT getting the calls that Lebron doesn’t get. I agree Lebron complains too much, but he also gets hit more often around the hoop without getting the call than any player on your list. He’s not allowed to play to his size and strength (or else he’s a “bully”) and if he looks/complains…

Is soccer included as a major sport? If so, clearly I think we would all choose soccer players.

I mean, in his defense, I don’t think I’ve seen a superstar NBA athlete get less calls around the hoop than Lebron does and be hyper-criticized for one charitable event (we all agree, including Lebron, was poorly handled - The Decision).

Lebron was assessed a technical, which is worse, correct?

Lebron getting separated by Frye and Smith (clearly wasn’t backing down to draymond) is less tough than Draymond’s nut shot and subsequent walk-away? I’m just extremely confused how Draymond walks away from this situation as the “tougher” guy.

Not sure what you use to measure toughness, but it’s almost unbelievable he has logged as many minutes as he has (more than anyone in history) and has rarely been injured. I would call that tough before I would call a guy supposedly unintentionally hitting other men in the nuts tough.

I’m confused, did Lebron not have a reason to complain between the literally never set multiple screens or the shot to the nuts (post draymond flop)?

Mostly starred for the random dolphin picture .... and I’m not sure why

I said you were tough. I never implied that you called yourself tough. My analogy wasn’t meant to be witty. It was meant to show the lack of logic in your points.

Ok, elaborate on how it’s different, tough guy. What exactly are you trying to persuade us on with your or so persuasive argument?

It isn’t about respecting my position, it’s about whether you’re really going to win someone over by being a dick right out of the gate.

You are bad at odds.

Agreed. I wasn’t in anyway trying to advocate for defending distributing videos/pictures of minor sex by minors. I agree this create an environment where young teenage boys think this is acceptable (I think this applies to young teenage girls as well - ie sharing dick pics). I think this entire topic is difficult in…

This to be thrown out?

Yes, I also read the part where it says the sex was “consensual”, so although complying isn’t the same as consent, she didn’t say “no” or object (again, whether it was right for the boy to still have sex with her is another argument completely).

Good info. Obviously outside of this situation, it’s good that we make ways for this to be thrown out. I don’t want my 14 year old daughter having sex with a 23 year old, but I also don’t think a 16 year old should be viewed as a rapist for having sex with a 14-15 year old (usually someone in their own grade…

I have heard of it, but never watched it. My sister’s ex-bf was Thadd (Thaddeus) and it always cracked me up. South Park does a great job of making fun of the name Thadd (among other names like Chad/Thadd/etc) in an episode.

I agree he needs to be punished, but I have a feeling the child pornography charge for a 16 year old may be a bit steep. I don’t know. I hate to see a kid’s life ruined over this mistake, especially when plenty of kids carry sexually explicit material of fellow minor classmates (not condoning it, just speaking in…

How do you know she consent with an enthusiastic yes?
