What... exactly is the problem? (Other than the rampant sexism and homophobia all over this thread.)
She won it every bit as much for saying "I'm not going to the fucking White House" when asked if she would be excited to go there if invited as for anything she did on the field for her sport. What would you expect from a publication that wanted Caitlyn Jenner to pose nude for it? Being woke is obviously incredibly important for them.
But, Sports Illustrated is getting just what it wanted from this - attention. So good for them. I guess. [Reply]

Correct. She won because she eats pussy and hates Trump.

The standards for Sportsman of the Year doesn't have to be sheer visibility. It's fluid, and can introduce a new brand of athletic personality that's had an impact on our culture and has also been incredible on the field of play.
She's been both, in spades.
So she likes black guys? What's that have to do with it? [Reply]

Yeah, they are, but much like ESPN, they're getting the attention of people who don't give a crap about sports, and alienating people who do. Not a particularly smart business model.
Of course, all these fuckers live in a bubble where everybody thinks like them, and nobody outside the bubble matters. At least until their woke ass businesses fail because the outsiders quit supporting them, and they end up moving back in with mommy and daddy. [Reply]

Absolutely. Hopefully they know how to code. [Reply]
Lots of good memories of Sugar Ray. Generational talent.
On a different note, I wonder if C A Adkins JR is still alive and living on Woodhaven Road. Did he have kids? Did they go to Glen Cove Elementary School? l wonder... [Reply]

Marvin Hagler beat his ass and was robbed twice. Once by the scoring and twice by never getting the rematch Leonard promised. [Reply]
