My apologies for any lack of posting on my part.
Like you care.
Just been busy that’s all.
However, something did pull me out for a brief second to offer my piece of shit thoughts. That’s the whole idiotic “controversy” about Jay Cutler. If Bret Favre was the cum that covered splattered over the media that willingly swallowed it, Cutler is the condom that left them unsatisfied. I don’t know what I just wrote.
Fuck it. I’m owning it. Hear that LeBron?
In any event, I don’t think I ever witnessed such unsubstantiated retardedness in all my useless life of watching sports.
Anybody who took a “Maurice Jones-Drew” position is a boob with a wart on their eyeball. I don’t care that Jay Cutler is an “asshole” and may even be have a low pain tolerance. It’s nobody’s business to make a comment from their comfy couch.
And if you’re going to do it, make damn sure that the slander you’re hurling is backed up by something called proof to back your venomous bull. And no, chiming in with a “oh, he’s standing on the sidelines on his knee ergo he can play” is not legitimate.
It’s a logical fallacy rooted in circumstantial perception.
It reminds me of the losers who somehow attempted to connect that moosebush Sarah Palin to the Tuscon murders. What a bunch of decrepit intellectual morons.
Apparently, slander without proof is all the rage now as long as it makes a stretchy point in your private defunct mind.
As you can tell, I’m annoyed. A tad.

All this tough talk by athletes makes me puke. Not that it matters, but I played soccer on a torn ACL and all it proved is I was an idiot for damaging it more. I even played on a badly twisted ankle (ah, the miracle of cortizone), dislocated shoulders and even a loose tooth during a hockey game. Bobby Clarke eat your heart out. Basically, I played sports at maybe 60% during most of my life. I know, wah-wah, life stinks and sucks.
What I’m saying I kinda get the whole thing.
Yeah, I know, I didn’t have money at stake, but I had everything equal to any competitive bastard and that’s the desire to damn play and WIN. Sports is all relative. Whether you play AAA or big leagues, athletes all share the same DNA: To play and win. Playing with an injury that’s preventing you to slug your way to victory sucks big time.
The one thing I learned in life is no matter how much you feel something, if you can’t prove it shut the hell up. There’s no way to judge Cutler. An MCL sprain is not something one can easily quantify. Because one person decides to play on a bum PCL or MCL doesn’t mean another can.
There are degrees to it you know.
I don’t care about Jay Cutler. While I don’t think he deserves the insane attacks, he’s a big boy. What I care about is the pressure we put on kids to go out and play on serious injuries lest we deem them “pussies.” Also, if you have a serious injury, you’re, more often than not, rarely helping your team or mates.
The real pussies are the ones who can’t face an injury with maturity. Or the ones who don’t own their Twitter comments.
That all being said, don’t get me wrong. Sometimes you have to play through pain. No doubt about it. It’s just that with the Cutler thing, fucking injured players were slamming him. Effen media jumped to all sorts of conclusions – journalistic integrity my ass. It just wasn’t cool.
Speaking of the media, I don’t get these guys sometimes. One minute they’re urging teams to take injuries like concussions seriously, but somehow a knee is not important? I guess it didn’t matter he was thrown around and sacked like a cheap potato all year.
Let it all play out. If his own teammates come out and slam him or facts come out suggesting he wasn’t that hurt and he quit, then we can revisit it. Until then…
Shut up.
