You already fall on one side of it all. That’s fine. I’m not in control with how you wish to think, feel, and live. I’m just not ever going to do the same. Still wish you all the best.
I wish you the best too, Sherbro, and I mean that sincerely.
I don’t doubt that. It’s not hard to disagree and still hope the other person does well. Just like entertaining someone else’s views, without agreeing. You have to at least attempt to see it to understand your own view.I wish you the best too, Sherbro, and I mean that sincerely.
I wish Strickland the best too. I don't think he's a bad guy, in fact I think that deep down he's a good one. He's just very angry and deeply misguided about where to direct that anger.
Anyway, good talk.

It’s best they do wash their hands of it, if they truly do not feel so strongly about it. The issue arises when folks grandstand about it, but do not honestly care. You can smell disingenuous bs, and I think that’s what makes many folks, including myself, upset.

Just act like it didn’t happen. Not your responsibility. Just grab the big check and run.
That’s what ESPN is doing now when it comes to the ugly, despicable, bigoted case of UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland, who this week, while speaking to the media prior to Saturday’s UFC 297, went on an anti-LGBTQ rant after a reporter asked about his previous claims that having a gay son meant he failed as a father.
Just act like it didn’t happen. Not your responsibility. Just grab the big check and run. We know those people are out there.
Small, insecure, bullies and tiny, tiny people.
What’s more shocking was ESPN’s reaction to it. Let me explain.
After reading about what Strickland said, I sent an email to one of the ESPN PR representatives who works with the UFC. I asked a simple question: Would ESPN be putting out any kind of statement denouncing what Strickland said?
The response: “I’d suggest you speak with UFC since Strickland is a UFC employee and they handle athlete relations.”
Huh?
Did you hear that sound?
That was ESPN washing its hands of this sordid mess.

It’s one thing for the UFC to condone Sean Strickland’s goon-like behavior, but shouldn’t ESPN have a higher standard?
It wasnt anti lgbqt it was pro humanity bro, indoctrinated much ?

Great movie. Such a beautiful love story.
That scene at the end with the shirt?? So sad.
Fun Fact 1: While it is sometimes called the "gay cowboy" movie, Jack and Ennis are actually herding sheep up on the mountain, which would make it the "gay shepherd" movie.
Fun Fact 2: There is more female nudity and straight sex scenes than male nudity and gay sex scenes. There's really only one super duper gay scene, which is mercifully brief. Meanwhile Anne Hathaway's boobs and Michelle Williams' boobs are both featured several times.
4 stars, but out of 5
We enjoy most watching grown men sweat on each other and get socked in the head for a living. Who’d have thought our views of things are so skewed
Depending on where you stand, this may not be good.Ahhh, my friend at least you realize the term is being flipped, flopped, and being misappropriated to take on a different essence for what the urban slang was originally meant.
Lmfao espn should just shut the fuck up and dribble the ball
