Shannon Sharpe re: Brett Favre "You have to be a sorry **** to steal from the underserved" (2 Viewers)

The money was better spent on a university volleyball stadium than people who spend their life avoiding work.

Wow. That’s some fork up sheet to say.

This kind of hate eats a man out from the inside. You side with the man who steals from the poorest and gives to the privileged. Life must be kicking you in the teeth, to be so resentful, and ungrateful.

Food stamps feed single moms w/ children, and the working poor. What you are doing is vilifying people with nothing but bad options to choose from, who when selecting the best bad option. You take it and use it as club to flog them with it.

Thanks for saying it loud and proud, so we know exactly who you are!

You should work harder so you can make some more money so you're not so bitter.

You must be so lazy.

My vote would be Wilt Chamberlain. He still holds 68 NBA records. He also led the league in assists one year.
There will never be another center to accomplish that feat.

Every Single NBA Record Held By Wilt Chamberlain: 100 Points, Most 50-Point Games In A Season, Most Rebounds, And More

The man, the legend, the one and only Wilt Chamberlain. For most young fans, Wilt Chamberlain could have never dominated in today's NBA. Well, let me tell you

easier to put up numbers when competition is slight - if he played against Shaqs and Olajuwan's and David Robinsons and Ewings, et al - he wouldn't be nearly as dominant
good, even great, but not all time

Absolute ignorance.

Do you know anything about the TANF program that is at the heart of this matter? Clearly you do not.

TANF provides temporary assistance for families with children, those who are pregnant, and anyone 18 or younger who is considered head of household.

The whole purpose is to provide cash assistance and employment assistance to those in hardship by creating a path to employment.

This benefit literally helps any working class individual who comes across unemployment and has children and to prevent chronic poverty.

Anyone of us with children could lose our job today and be in need of TANF services by tomorrow.

Many of the individuals who go on TANF have paid taxes into the system that makes these funds possible.

I've worked for workforce development programs that are a part of the TANF system and the amount of hard working educated individuals that have come to rely on these services in their temporary time of need as they regain employment is plentiful.

What the state and Favre did for a GYM is reprehensible.

Thank you for sharing your informed and compassionate thoughts.

Always nice to read a post from you.

IMO, this is what makes it impossible to call anyone the "GOAT". You simply can't compare athletes from different times. You could call someone the GOAT of their time, but that is about it. Even than, in sports like baseball, many "greats" weren't playing against the best competition of their time because of segregation. Add in improvements in training and equipment and specialist roles on the field/court, it almost makes it impossible. It does make for fun conversations.

Valid point, but they were also playing a different game with different rules….same with MJ and LeBron…

I agree with Face on most things but not on this one. MJ had the quickest most explosive 1st step and finish at the basket I’ve ever seen, he was also tough enough to take the physical pounding that players simply don’t do any longer due to rule changes…IMO MJ would destroy the NBA today with its offensive favored rules….but no way to know….

Actually he paid it back but refuses to pay interest on it. He claims that DHS never invited him to do the actual speaking engagements but he was willing. The whole things stinks, but the most stink is coming from the top of state government.

The amount of interest comes to $280,000. That is a pretty big chunk of interest.

Well it kind of is or Darren Sharper would be in by now. Nobody can argue that he’s not one of the best safeties of all time.
Entry and expulsion are two different things though and the HOF has a very clear policy of once you’re in you’re in.

True. But he did go to prison for kidnap, robbery and assault all with a deadly weapon.

Someone getting in with charges is harder than removing someone for what occurred after their induction. OJ deserves to be in the Hall just like Reggie Bush deserves to have his trophy. HOF should not be a moral choice. It should only be about what happened on the field.

Nah. There's no Ehlo, Majerle, etc guarding MJ today. In today's game the guy at the end of the bench is more athletic than the HOF players of that day. MJ's success had a lot to do with how supremely athletic he was in comparison to others. That's not the case today. Today he would have to shoot over Durant, LeBron, etc.

Great player. Pure beast. But I just can't put him as the GOAT.

 

[Marcotte]

Nah, man. We gotta do what the media wants and make it a race issue instead of the elites versus everyone else. /s

Thank you.
