Again, I’m not a fan of the USOC, or the IOC, at all. Yes, they should’ve been at the hearing. But the one thing they have done repeatedly and are doing now is using the threat of defunding, or decertification to force change on an extremely unwilling USAG.

People hide behind the argument that other students might be hurt every time an institution collectively does wrong. I’d argue the students would be harmed far more by allowing an institution to be led by someone who oversaw the creation of a culture that provided a safe haven for a man to sexually assault HUNDREDS of…

Yeah. I don’t know enough to say if she is complicit in the various cover ups. But at the very least she clearly aligned herself with those that did. So she has forfeited any right to have any kind of say in rebuilding the sport in the future. She can fuck right off. Get her out of the way and let the next generation,…

There are many many reasons to hate the USOC, but it seems at least here they’ve been out in front of this. Last year the long time USAG head, Steve Penny was doing nothing, it was the USOC who called for him to quit. In response the USAG board, including Mary Lou Retton, unanimously voted their support of him.…

I was a hotel bartender for years. I recognized that my bar had it’s limitations, you’d pop in to start the night, but I didn’t expect you to spend all night there. So the key to good tips was to know what the customer wanted. Fine dining? Casual bar food? A surprisingly high number of travelers wanted to know where a…

My only quibble with your statement is that you left out USAG.

That’s a video, not a picture. Easy mistake. That’s how slow his release is.

Those are good questions too.

To be fair, Fallin doesn’t follow boxing, so she probably just assumed he was a running back OU was recruiting.

Because what you feel about him doesn’t change the fact that he is President. And to resist him, and ultimately defeat him means you have to accept that fact and to stop stomping your feet like a toddler demanding a do over. It won’t and it shouldn’t happen. It only makes the job harder, which is to organize, to…

You need to step up your masturbation game. This applies if you are a man or a woman.

Officials asked his rival Marcel is he was the one behind these snowball attacks, but he just waved them off wordlessly.

Okay I understand this. But how can his supervising physician, or the 4 who were part of the investigation not hear about him performing this on athletes and not at the very least have a million questions? Meanwhile the gym team’s trainer, who admitted being present to many of his treatments, who when an athlete…

Totally agree. Oklahoma is a one man show. But that UCLA team as a whole was a joy to watch. Played fast, ran, great ball movement. TJ Leaf was as fun as Ball.

Not just this coach, but the gymnastics team trainer, Nasser’s supervisor who was a physician, and the four doctors from the Title IX investigation all heard about this “medical procedure.”

People forget how fun it was to watch Lonzo Ball and UCLA last year before his Dad emerged and soured the whole experience. But goddamn, just a year later and this kid emerges and suddenly Oklahoma emerges as the most fun team I’ve seen in ages. This kid is unreal.

The Mike Ilitch effect!

Fair enough. I agree he’s not a top tier guy.

I’m not hung up on that. But the argument that Edgar, simply an incredible hitter for a decade, isn’t a hall of famer because he was “just a DH is a poor one.

I like Hal Baines. Hell, who doesn’t? Underrated player.
