Back in 1980s/90s Dexter Manley testified to a House committee that after 4 years of college (Oklahoma State) he couldn’t read.

Note ot claiming OSU should have taught him to read. He should have been able to do that before he got there or not allowed in!

[No name given]

Obviously.

[EEGator]

I’m sure he belongs in college.

I don’t care if he gets 5 SB rings, just don’t call him a college student.
He’s a savannah strider, nothing more.

[EEGator]

Dexter Manley couldn’t read…

[Ge0ffrey]

You don’t have to be an astronomer to play football.

[Responsibility2nd]

Owens, who played three years at the University of Texas and then two years at Texas Tech, is a favorite to have the fastest 40-yard dash time

How embarrassing for those two schools. To have a moron like this as an alumni.

[Dr. Franklin]

He just needs to be smart enough to play football.

He can be dumb at everything else.

They are called dumb jocks for a reason.

The USA NFL is totally against “The Science”.

It’s a Joke.

[Fuzz]

Sorry, was speaking of Kylie Irving.

I guess those round things in the sky and the stars are props God put up to make the world look nice

I believe in love
Music is love and love is music if you know what I mean
People who believe in music are the happiest people I've ever seen"

I used to be a Flat Earther. But now...

[cgbg]

I am sure your “moderate” Earth is racist—I just can’t figure out why...yet.

;-)

[V_TWIN]

Yeah Dexter Manley was the first one I remember to expose the dirty little secret of ushering players through classes so they could play without really educating them...and has anything been done about it since his admission of illiteracy? Not one damn thing...if anything, it’s worse.

All for the almighty dollar. SMH

How is Owens any different than that Freeper who believes the trips to the moon were filmed at Hollywood locations.

Because belts or something.

[Magnum44]

LoL. Where's the space turtle?

[HartleyMBaldwin]

I’m thinking of that old joke about a college football coach talking to reporters about a star player and says, “That kid doesn’t know the meaning of the word fear. Of course, there are lots of words he doesn’t know the meaning of.”

[PGR88]

SOLIPSISM: from Latin solus ‘alone’, and ipse ‘self’ is the philosophical idea that only one’s mind is sure to exist. As an epistemological position, solipsism holds that knowledge of anything outside one’s own mind is unsure; the external world and other minds cannot be known and might not exist outside the mind.

I wonder if the kid even knows the word?

[Responsibility2nd]

It’s racist because it put the “dark continent” in the round part. All them African people are bound to fall off.

[EEGator]

It’s messed up in both directions.
