I barely know who he is. I had no idea he was a commentator. I just read the Tweets. They definitely have the feel of, “I’ve said dumbshit stuff like this before.”
Yeah, he’s been a repeat fuck-up for decades. He was accused of rape a few years ago but NBC Sports California chose this moment of insensitivity to shame him and bloviate about their supposed values. Someone over there hired him.
Maybe that woman he raped was just being racist against ugly men.
Maybe. That and women being racist against his personality is the national conversation we should have next.
I just read the account of the 17 year old girl that suicided Kentucky lawmaker raped, and I’m so pissed off right now. I want to bash his fucking head in. I want to help her somehow. She probably feels responsible for his death, and she loved him once, he was like a father to her and he betrayed her, and now he’s dead. She’s going to have to deal with that for the rest of her life, while people look down on her and shame her just for telling the truth. I wonder if there’s any way I can help her.
I strongly disagree with you: he’s a blameshifting sleazebag* of unprecedented magnitude.
It boils down to
What a fucking asshole. The correct way to do an apology is “What I did to those women was wrong. I apologize and won’t do it again.” Not “Waaaaah! My daddy issues made me rape those women so it’s kinda not my fault .”
*See Al Franken’s and Louis CK’s fake “Sorry/NOT SORRY” faux apologies for others of this ilk.
You know, the best I ever got from my adoptive father to account for six years of sexual abuse was “mistakes were made.” I would have killed for a response like Spurlock’s.
It’s all relative.
I must be a cynic; based on this sentence, combined with his retweeting of all the back-pats, made it sound to me like a combination of fear that “I’m next, so I better get my self-serving side out before someone else does,” and trolling for atta-boys.
Although Weinstein is old news, Salma Hayek’s revelation of what he did to her throughout the making of Frida is chilling.
Not sufficient at all.
Quite a few people expected that sort of thing to start happening.
Now that NBC’s running ads for the Olympics w/ athlete pics, I was surprised Shaun White will be competing considering his…difficultieslast year.
The most surprising thing about that is that someone gave him a job.
He only cares about winning, and that’s all. There is no remorse in his reptilian brain stem. He has to be forced out.
However…
As long as the traitors and Putin’s stooges hold the House, Senate, and White House, that will never happen.
The irony is strong with this one.

And rings whole carrillions to anybody who’s been there. It’s “yep… yep… oooh yeah… yep…” The bits about Weinstein being so nice in public contexts? Oooooh yes, I know that guy.
Translation: The chicks had no sense of humor. They didn’t know I was joking. Now they are being mean to me.
What an asshole.
Jerry Jones doesn’t think Richardson should get out of football
‘I’m not guilty but I will accept punishment as though I am guilty. Sure, it makes no sense, as I have access to some of the best legal counsel money can buy; but I’m happy to pretend I did wrong just so women who can’t take a joke feel better about themselves.’ - said no innocent person ever.
