One of the swimmers said that a gun was pulled because Ryan wouldn’t sit down and the swimmer yelled at Ryan to stop being an ass. I am sure it was scary. I don’t think a gun should be brought out unless you feel unsafe or menaced. Not sure if this was the case.

Gabby Douglas has gotten negative comments about her appearance in the past. And while the media has been calling Lochte out, there has been plenty of people commenting on how Brazil is blowing things out of proportion and that he just pulled down a sign and then extorted by gun point. Again, I’ll point out that it…

Technically he was forced to give money at gun point because he destroyed some stuff. If he just kept his mouth shut then nothing would have happened. No, he had to brag and lie about it and act like he was being a tough guy in face of a gun pointed at his face. If he just told the truth, people would have been more…

I admit I didn’t know much about the guy other than he looked good in a speedo. I’ve seen some video and interviews since and boy is he dim.

The media outlets for sure are calling him out but they also weren't the ones who were tearing gabby Douglas down.

I’ve seen people commenting (not here) that Ryan made a mistake or that they bet the other swimmers are lying because they are afraid and blah blah blah. I wouldn’t be surprised if these are the same people who tore gabby down

What it is about gabby Douglas is she is a black woman and she doesn’t smile a lot. Everyone loves Laurie Hernandez (and I do too) and one of the reasons is the fact that she has a huge “I can’t believe I am here and nailing it” grin plastered all over her face. She is cute and bubbly. Gabby is serious and reserved…

I thought Michael Phelps was dumb as a box of rocks but apparently I was mistaken and that title should go to Ryan Lochte. Phelps is just not the sharpest knife in the drawer but still an amazing athlete and nice guy.

Gabby Douglas gets raked over the coals for not putting her hand on her heart but Ryan gets a pass for being a 32 year old man who gets drunk and pees in public and breaks a door and lies about it. Wtf?

Tourists get killed by people in America too.

I’m from the NY area and many of my Jewish friends are pro Isreal while a few others are anti Netanyahu. I don’t express my opinion very much (that I think US has allied too closely with Israel, that I am sympathetic to how badly the Palestinians were treated) because I really don’t want to be screamed at. Now that I…

They should hAve left the post as is and not engaged with the commenters. Or at least just say “we just want to keep our focus on the local talent. sorry to disappoint!”

I read it in the early 90s and loved it. I haven't read it since and I don't remember much of the plot now. I'll have to reread it. So sad. For years I would look to see if she wrote a new book

Yeah I would say that this guy is a shitty parent. How frightening that he has a daughter. His children will be the ones in school who are disruptive and awful in class. The ones where you groan when you find out that they are in your kid’s class. Ugh what an ass

Well in the book the reasoning behind it was that the others in the group were really angry at her and no longer trusted her or Jamie and he was backed into a corner and had to do it to get Claire back in the good graces of the clan. Claire bonks him on the head over it and he apologizes and says he would never raise…

It was just a light spanking? He's hot?

He isn’t the nicest but Claire was pretty clear that Jamie was her true love. I would think that would destroy any husband to know that. N

Frank in the show really is awesome. I didn’t like him as much in the books. He was ok I guess but kind of a jerk but he certainly had his reasons for being that way.

I just picked up the Nintendo 2ds that was featured yesterday here at my local target. I am so excited! It’s for my daughters 10th birthday. She doesn’t play a lot of video games but she is super into Pokemon and we always do a Two day road trip every summer. Her birthday isn’t until June so I won’t get to play with…

I read a little about it when it came out. It seemed like most of the texts were like this:
