“She is idolized for being what all of us black girls should want to be…”

wait… what? should want to be?!!!!!?!!!

amazing!

Right or wrong, I think the subtext of NBC putting the camera in Jordyn’s face was to not be pulling punches and show how she would react after she had VISIBLY thrown shade at Gabby Douglas when Gabby won the Olympic Trials earlier this month. I think if Jordyn would have shown less selfishness and [...]

Truly all of you do such an amazing job! Besides, I think of myself as definitely more of a reader than a writer; case in point, I just looked back at what I’ve written and for the most part it’s scattered, overly harsh, and critical… with an appalling grasp of HTML! Thank you!

If you go to the fitness center all the time like I do and pay attention to what people are lifting, you’ll quickly realize when you look at the amounts that Sarah lifts that there are, indeed, VAST numbers of men in the U.S.A who lift far more than Sarah does. In fact, Sarah lifts [...]

ugh. I had meant to say, “…was subject to similar criticisms, with this major Aussie newspaper going so far as including photos, innuendo, and medical “experts” rejecting his claim that his “bloated look” was due to carb loading…”. Anyway, it’s all just ridiculous. I guess this is what sells newspapers and attracts page views. Whatever. [...]

I should also point out that although this particular criticism of Leisel Jones unambiguously and problematically occurs within the cultural framework of the pressures put upon modern women and girls, she is not alone; Australian swimmer, Grant Hackett, 3 time men’s Olympic gold medalist was subject to similar criticisms, rejecting his claim that his “bloated look” [...]

“She also owns a few world records.” This is not true. Leisel is the former world record holder in the 100m and 200m breaststroke, but she owns no current world records. The current women’s world record holder in both events is the amazing Rebecca Soni of the United States! As a major fan of this [...]

FYI, “oh yes we did!” is the tagline of an ad campaign domino’s has been carrying on since 2010. this new campaign is also saying “no is the new yes”, not “yes is the new no”; i don’t expect others to see it, but i see a big difference. why is bain capital is germane [...]

totally!

Are we going to correct the headline, Maya? Even a cursory Google search shows that Sarah Robles is NOT the strongest person in America. It may even be the case that she’s not even among the top 1000 strongest people in America, which is completely irrelevant, because Sarah Robles doesn’t need to be the strongest [...]

I thought there might be an error in the headline “the strongest person in america”, so after doing a bit of research, I found that USA is sending a man to London who is stronger. His name is Kendrick Farris, he competes in the 187 lb. weight class, and his personal best is 355 kg [...]
