What happens on the Internet, STAYS ON THE INTERNET!.................Don't ever forget that.....................
17 years old!!! Remember when Laura Ingraham was boycotted because she dared level criticism at a 17-year old “child” David Hogg??
He just needs to self-identify as a black Muslim lesbian.
Words have gained tyrannical power.
So this just happens to come out when he is in the all star game? It just happens when he was actually playing in the game? How coincidental is that????
Even at 17 he should have known better. But if he says he has changed I would take him at his word. What I find interesting is that we are supposed to go lightly on (in comparison to an full adult) a 17 year old if he murders somebody because of his stage of brain development but hang him from the yard-arm if stuff like this surfaces.
Its good there are so many without sin who can cast the first stones. Best wishes to him to overcome this. These are usually professional death penalties these days.
Wonder what most of the professionals in the NBA were talking about when they were 17.....
Big deal.
Why is that one stupid word (especially) is worthy of the guillotine, but actual assault CRIMES get passes for some of the NFL types and so on? Excuses galore?
I’m sick of this PC garbage. People (if not identifiably leftist) are being crucified over some words.
The teammates can get over it, but the bosses and the Compost can’t.
The politics of the smear. This is how the Nazis began with the Jews. Destroy their reputations and finances, then it is easy enough to round them up and gas them.
He was 17! He was immature. As he said, hes not that person anymore.
The newest sport, “Destroy the People”, I don’t know what the prize is though.
Obama used the n word on national television so anyone can say it at any time.
Sounds like he’s grown up. Unlike some people who claim they were hacked. It’s not too late for people like Joy Reid to grow up but I’m not betting on it - some people just want to stay 17 forever.
I can forgive and move on if there appears to be real change and not just excuses.
This crap needs to stop.
It’s started with that Villanova player who wrote song Tweets when he was 15, and it wound up overshadowing the game.
Hah! And so it has begun, all the social media children are starting to regret their oh-so-public childhoods. Thank God there was no internet when I was a youngster.
Cole Hamels is a Cub.
