    He's not an executive and clearly a performer, I don't know how they would skate around that but either way this makes WWE look like they've been covering for him even if that's not the case. He has to be off SummerSlam. It'll still be a sellout and probably wouldn't hurt the network subs too much. Still, he was red hot coming off UFC 200. Vince must be losing his shit.

    Greatest combat athlete ever*

    *Not named Steven Seagal. He would never do steroids. Hair plugs maybe but never PEDs.

    So this pretty would kill any chance of Lesnar continuing on with UFC I'm guessing. He'd be out like another two years right 

    Right now, it's looking like that but it always depends. Still has to go through the adjudication process. He could want his B sample tested. More than likely, that's going to come back positive unless there is a case of contamination or some stroke of magic. Unless, there is a clear cut case of tainted supplements where he could get his sanction shortened, it could be a career ender. On top of that, Nevada most likely will suspend him. Jon Jones is on the docket on Monday for his USADA failure. Brock may be put on there as well, but probably likely added for the next meeting they have. They could follow USADA's sanction or they could do something like suspend him for 12 months. Either way, by the time he comes back, he would need to reapply for a license anyway since he would be like 40 years old or older.

    If this is true they have to pull Lesnar. Now that WWE is taking these things seriously and are tied in with ESPN it'd be a terrible move to have Lesnar on the card. And I'm fine with it because I didn't want to really see him fight Orton anyway. I wonder why he didn't fail any of WWE's tests... hmm 

    Do the wellness tests have CIR testing? IIRC, when someone fails a USADA test, they run it through Carbon Isotope ratio testing to make sure it's indeed a failure.

    Much like weigh Roman I wonder what he got popped for.  

    In Roman's case it has to be something pretty serious (I.e. not just test which he can have a script for). In Brock's case it can literally be anything non recreational

    It's up to Brock to tell people unless known EPO hookup Chael Sonnen dry snitches on him.

    nevermind. Anyway if you think Brock or Vince give two shits...

    Brock is probably not going to be on Summerslam. I think Vince would be mad especially in that the UFC got to make millions off of Brock Lesnar and the WWE got nothing out of it essentially.

    Plus, Nevada can take away a large portion of his purse. He could wind up losing a million dollars or more.

    I have this really bad feeling that the pool will go to the person that has Suicide Squad ranked highest for BO and RT.  I don't think it will be Guardians of the Galaxy late summer sleeper mega-hit, but I do think it will perform well above expectations.

    Right now, it is trending to open at $125m. What are the expectations? Based on this slaughterhouse of a summer, I thought WB would be happy with somewhere between $75-$100m. It would also be their biggest summer hit this year by a wide margin unless I'm missing one of their releases.

    So, leaving aside the ranting, you are absolutely owed a response, my posting in the thread allows you to dictate the terms of what form that response will take, and if I decline to do so, it's because I'm afraid of being called a racist.

    No, I didn't ask for a response from you. My response was aimed at Zeidler. I didn't respond to you or EVA. However, your response (or non-response) basically admitted "I have nothing but I did spam the thread to bait someone".

    I just needed to vent to someone else than the missus (because we often do that to each other as it is). Feel free to delete my post if you (or the board population in general) feel more at ease that way. I apologise if I made anyone feel uncomfortable with what I said, and I'll be sure to keep such a sensitive topic off the board if desired. (And just to be clear: I am not being sarcastic.) Sometimes people need a place to vent, and I'd hate to be the cause that such an opportunity is shut down.

    I didn't agree with several of the things you said, but based the fact that people want to run away from stuff, I can't really condemn you. You at least owned up to something.

    You sir, are and always have been, an asshole.  I skim your posts because you add nothing to threads but heat and sexism.

    You're trying to troll and bait. Dude, you just admitted to spamming a thread to get it closed when you can go to several other threads freely. Ryan and myself were discussing something, and you came in out of nowhere to post a meaningless GIF. If Rippa or someone banned you, I wouldn't be that mad because you gave yourself up.

  8. 4 minutes ago, Mike Zeidler said:

    I posted the thread to derail the political talk, because I didn't want to see the thread closed.  Fuck it, though, close it down

    My take is not fucking political. I am talking sincerely about the destruction caused to my people. No one is going to close it because you dislike something. That would be absolutely asinine. You don't like it? Go create another thread. Or you know, don't go into this one. There are thousands of other threads. Go into those.

  9. 20 minutes ago, Cristobal said:

    Am I answering for myself or "white people" here?

    Who do you think you're answering for? Because all I see if like 2 or 3 paragraphs of texts saying, "Yeah, I'm going to say I'm not going answer or address anything and basically admit I posted a GIF for basically spam purposes and an admin would be well within their rights to delete it." 

    Dude, I know when people are trying to be snide and cheeky (you and EVA). My response to Zeidler was strong because it was valid. Black people can see through that shit. Even if Zeidler wasn't trying to be that (or it was in response to Roman), he basically decided to not discuss it because posting a GIF is easier than discussing anything that even remotely tackles a really important issue. On the internet, that's another white person get-out-of-it like "I don't see race". 

    You're in a thread where people are discussing something and you offered nothing. Well, except being snide and cheeky when that's the exact opposite of what's needed. Therefore, I can't feel anything other than "Yup, people want a forum and then decide to they don't want it because the fear of being able to discuss problems". So many people have died because people wanted to play the middle or play no position at all. And if it is the fear of being called a racist, then think about this. White people have caused the deaths of millions of innocent people, caused destruction worldwide, destroyed countless cultures and languages, and caused whole nations to crumble. The very least of your worries should be being called a racist. THE VERY LEAST.

    What response is it you feel you're owed that you're raging at people who aren't providing it?

    How am I raging? Instead of replying to myself (or I guess Roman's anti-Muslim tirade above my follow up response to Ryan), Zeidler posted a GIF. If it was intended for Roman, then that's between Zeidler and Roman. If he is trying tie my response in with whatever response Roman had or just me directly, then that GIF is certainly unwarranted. For the obvious reasons and the fact that's a huge copout when you have any opportunity to openly discuss what you're feeling. So many times, I hear white people use the stereotypical, "well, we don't have any open forum" or this, that, and the other. Then, they clam up and get the vapors when they actually get one. If you can't do that on an internet forum with this level of anonymity, how in the blue fuck do you approach black people in real life? Or do you try to avoid black people like the bubonic plague? Because there are plenty of those people.

    I don't take humor in the exploitation of the deaths of my people. I am going to hopefully and safely assume this applies to J.T., supremebve, and all the other black people on this board. Even though we've had our differences, we can at least agree on that.

  11. So white people are afraid to discuss race because they can't hide behind pictures. Yeah, must be a thrill for the black people you smile with.

    White people say that don't have a forum to speak about race. A black person says something a vast majority of people within his own race feel, especially now with the events of the last week or so, in a smaller forum. Gets absolute crickets save for one person, who was bold enough to at least TRY to offer one thing.

    This is America in 2016.

  12. If that was directed at me, then that's basically saying, "You know what? I have nothing intelligent to say or contribute at all. Matter of fact, let me post of this irrelevant GIF with this known racist so I can let people know I am willing to offer something passive aggressive to hide my racist leanings."

    Wow, that's quite the lengthy response. Must have been brewing for awhile.

    I don't know if brewing is the right word. There are people within the black community that peeped game years ago (cutting ties to Jeremiah Wright and the speech in response, Henry Louis Gates, the Jan Brewer incident just off the top of my head) and wanted nothing to do with him. However, the only people you're going to see against Obama are bed wenches like Stacey Dash and ole Snow Miser jaw Crystal "the black Ann Coulter but without the book sales or any notoriety" Wright who obviously need money along with a bunch of other white ass kissers like Jesse Lee Peterson and Larry Elder. That basically goes into the next thing.

    Not much to retort with since I have a plethora of issues with the guy in the first place which have to do with reality and not stupid made up crap from crazy people who live inside my tv and sell me gold and survival kits.

    The problem is what the media says (whether it be CNN, MSNBC, Fox, or just any social media platform) has seeped into black culture and became even more injurious to the entire plight of black people in America. You can't say be progressive, but do not want to accurately address the problems that have made reform more than necessary. That's like step #1 of like 5 billion steps. If you can't get past step 1, then what and who are you? The way the wicked people who actually run the country got Obama into office was so brilliant, bold, and deceptive that I don't think anyone thought it would work this well. The same thing you said about "well, I wouldn't expect anything until...." is the EXACT same thing black people have been saying for the past eight or nine years. Why? Because not only have black people been manipulated into believing in quotes and taglines, but the plantation/Jim Crow mentality has manifested itself into it's own mind control that will only persist as long as blacks are naive enough to gravitate to what is popular but safe. Hashtags are safe. Pictures in memes that talk about white people do this and black people do that are safe. Posters are safe. Peaceful protests are safe. Why? Because they don't affect any change at all. Not in the least. 

    In 2007/2008, they were saying Rev. Wright needs to hush up so Obama can get elected. When he gets elected and people push for him to speak up for black people, black people say he has to be in office for one or two years. People again push for him to speak up for black people, and other black people say he has to win reelection. Blacks AGAIN ask when is he going to actually speak up for black people, and other blacks say he isn't going to have support from anyone. Obama speaks out for Latinos and the LGBT community, but once again, blacks who will not abandon their support for him have to latch onto whatever sliver of logic left in their argument. Now after countless deaths of blacks (that only mirror what has gone on in the past and present) over the last few years, they are completely unarmed because no one can ardently defend a puppet of the white supremacist system. The town hall travesty from last night was only ONE of many puppet shows.

    The same people that were able to convince black people that Obama was a true black leader are the same people trying convince blacks now that shameless opportunists like DeRay McKesson and Netta are leaders of the Black Lives Matter movement. Get this....there ain't no real leaders in BLM. If there were, they would be killed for saying something truthful that threatens white supremacy. That's how the story has went for centuries in America. However, no one will say this.
