That Adorable Scamp Mike Tyson Does It Again!

[Eve]

NEW YORK (AP) - Eleven years after he was found guilty of raping a beauty pageant contestant, Mike Tyson again denied he committed the attack but said the burden of the conviction makes him want to do it now. In a television interview scheduled for broadcast Thursday, the former heavyweight boxing champion said Desiree Washington "put me in that state where I don't know. I just hate her guts," he said. "... Now I really do want to rape her."

Good ol' Mike. It's important to have guys like him around to give all the rest of us a baseline from which to draw the definition of "humanity." 'Cause he ain't it.

[papergirl]

Good ol' Mike. Always learning from experience, that guy. And such a talent for spin!

[papergirl]

Oh, now THAT is cool. A simulpost with identical openers.

We so cosmic.

I can't help but wonder if for all these years he's actually been on Ted Turner's payroll. The guy is news waiting to happen!

[Q.E.D.]

Bernse beat you to it, Eve.

[Amp]

Remember folks, he's not paid to be a role model.

He does it for free!

Oops, sorry—didn't even see that one. I did look, honest . . .

Kinda makes a gal want to cuddle right up to him, doesn't it? And I'll bet he's one talented stud in the sack too, huh?

If there is one bit of justice in nature, it's that it would give a thug with such overwhelming physical tools a voice seemingly still anticipatory of it's first nutdropping.

I don't know if he'd blow in your ear, but he'd sure as hell bite it.

Thats OK, Eve. A piece of work such as this deserves at least two active pit threads.

What the hell is wrong with this guy and why the hell do his handlers let him talk in front of Homo Sapiens Sapiens? He is far more effed up than being punched repeatedly in the head can account for.

OK, so I didn't actually spit my lunch all over my computer, but this was about as close as I'll ever come.

The only difference between Joe Louis and Mike Tyson is that, when I saw Joe Louis broke, punch-drunk, crazy, and pissing down his leg in a wheelchair, I felt sorry for him.

Wasn't it Camus who said that sports don't build character, but they do reveal it? I used to be a Tyson fan, and I believe he once had the potential to be the best ever.

But as they always say, you can take the sick, twisted, sociopathic criminal out of the ghetto, but....

I've wondered the same thing. Like Turner is to Tyson what Vince McMahon is to The Rock.

Okay, unlike Godfrey, I -did- spit diet coke all over my monitor. Congradulations, you're the first one to be able to get me to do that in 13 years!

[Harborwolf]

this thread reminded me of this . It's the second from the bottom.

Didn't Mr Tyson marry a lawyer? Was she just after his money or what?

Well, I imagine being his lawyer is a recessionproof career choice...

Oh, OUCH!! lieu, you almost made me pee my pants!!! Not to mention I have a slight case of the sniffles and my throat hurts, geez, warn a girl willya?

I like to see a full transcript of that interview.

That sounds awfully close to uttering threats.

Extra points to Fox News for showing their usual high standard of class:

Ms Washington turned down requests to be interviewed and declined to respond to Tyson's comments, Fox News said. Guardian online

"Hello?"

"Good morning. Desiree? Can you make some time in your schedule to detail exactly how the suggestion of a repeat of your rape by a 240Lb sociopath makes you feel, for the prurient consumption of our subliterate viewers?"
