Jesus Christ. I mean, it goes without saying that he really, really, really, really does though. If Trump got 99% turnout of non-college educated white men (his largest bloc) he's STILL slated to lose to Hillary in the popular and EC with her polling at +8 today.

The thing with that is the NBA's primary audience is black and young, both progressive segments with low tolerance for racism.

Yao Ming got in to the HoF, not because he was a good player (and let's be honest, he wasn't like Shaq good, but he was definitely good), but because of him opening the doors to China and helping basketball grow.

Hoo-lee poo poo that's cold blooded. The African-American outreach section of the Trump strategy guide is nothing but a poorly xeroxed middle finger.

Meanwhile, opiate ODs continue to kill people at an alarming rate, particularly in WV. Apparently a bad batch went into circulation and dropped over two dozen people in a matter of hours in one small city alone.

why? pro wrestling is about watching big sweaty oily men dress up in thongs and pretend to be really mad at each other before they start grappling

it's really theatrical and dumb and, not putting words in your mouth here, the idea that pro wrestling fandom = rightist political tendencies is because of a general stereotype that lower class rural white people, one of the traditional core demographics of pro wrestling, are inherently republican

I would guess they mean Frank VanderSloot, but that was a $650,000 cost, not a $350,000 one. Easily a typo or misremembering. If it's that case, it's this story. If it's not, then lots of people want to take out Mother Jones.

Yep. All the rumors about her health are completely baseless. She's not suffering from any conditions that would be unusual or remotely debilitating for a well-off woman in her late 60's.

That was pretty much my reasoning as to why, to be honest. I only know a handful of people personally who like wrestling, though all of those are pretty liberal.

Yes. There is literally nothing to it. The only reason it is a thing is because they have nothing else.

I mean she is 68 years old but frankly she's probably in better shape than a lot of us because she is a wealthy 68 year old former senator/former first lady/former secretary of state/presidential candidate.

I found this out after Loveline's prime days, but apparently Dr Drew was receiving money for promoting Wellbutrin which is why it pops up so much.

It's somewhat sad to find out that people you once respected are shitheads, but I'm not going to lose too much sleep over nailing the final nail in that coffin.

I've liked Dr. Drew but as an entertainer and never really respected him as a doctor. It's still weird to me that he was willing to poo poo all over Clinton's health care.

The trend for pro wrestling is onsessed older people with a ton of disposable income.

Alot of the poor white men have also basically quit watching.
