Jesus what a sham

Not only was it a clear dive by Sterling, there was 2 balls on the pitch at the time

Rants speaks unabashedly about black issues and some people (angsty gringos) don't like that. Even if he is telling the truth.

To them, speaking about racism in a forthright manner makes you the racist. I have worked with people like that myself.

Rants started getting louder about this stuff during the riots/BLM stuff and if anything he is even more vocal now.

The ramp-up to the end of Rants @ TUS started when Rants said Ole is (only?) the manager because he is a gringo and TUS's angsty teens started showing out.

This right here.

Rants can go hard with his opinion and points which can understandably rub people the wrong way but it's always corny to me (and informative how they really feel ) when they try to pull the racial shyt. It happens every time everywhere when a Black person speaks openly on issues like that.

The whole rants situation is just mark is racist probably true. But, i feel like rants cant carry a channel on his own..his personality and dry humor is not for everyone.

And his subs have been stagnant for a while. He might wanna chill and not burn bridges with everyone cuzz he's gon need allies to help is stuff grow. Ex got humor,flex carries himself well and mark has the cacness working for him

Sometimes been too real aint that good ,specially for business,just ask robbie

I can’t believe Balo is only 30. For some reason I thought he was pushing 35 or something. It’s crazy to think that he was basically washed by the time he was 25.

He has a core audience though. Sometimes quality beats quantity

Surprised he hasn’t tried playing in the states yet.

And they still won’t win Champions League

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

Not that impressive.

Half the team is either washed or defensively suspect

Indirectly called Flex and some of other brehs out there in the media a bunch of tap dancers.

Frank Bruno was the worst offender. Happy that he's good mentally now though.
