Interesting, a French olympic marathon runner, Morhad Amdouni, is getting roasted and being accused of purposely knocking off all of the water bottles from the water station table so the the other runners couldn't get any water. In the video, he knocks all of the water bottles off of the table except the last one, which he grabs for himself.
Olympic runner Amdouni knocking down water bottles during race causes debate
French long-distance runner Morhad Amdouni is being blasted for what appears to be an act of poor sportsmanship during one of the last events of the Tokyo Olympics.
During the men’s marathon, Amdouni is seen approaching the water station, a table of small water bottles, and knocking over a row of them. He then takes the last one in the row for himself.
The detroit Lions new head coach Dan Campbell is certainly an interesting man, his latest quote has people in stitches.
Dan Campbell on the Lions: 'There's No Turds Here.'
Dan Campbell is the best thing to happen to the Detroit Lions, the NFL and the Internet since that cat learned how to play the keyboard. Every day he seems to do or say something that is just wonderful upworthy content. Today we have him complimenting former Lions coach Matt Patricia and GM Bob Quinn by saying he inherited no turds on the roster when he showed up.
“I think we’re fortunate because I do believe we have some talented players on this team that have grit, and that’s a good thing, you know?” Campbell said. “I said this when I walked in -- there’s a number of guys that were here, and I think (Matt) Patricia and (Bob) Quinn did a great job of, there’s no turds here. There’s no bad guys. These guys work now. We don’t have lazy (guys). We don’t have those (lazy) guys, and that’s a good thing.
The Dude does not abide a turd. Please, just let Campbell work out in Detroit because his honesty, sense of humor and enthusiasm for football is extremely refreshing. Let's hope the pressure of the job doesn't get to him because that would be like ruining a bowl of punch with whatever colloquially ruins that kind of thing.
This certainly is interesting, ESPN NFL analyst Bart Scott says that Cam Newton's nickname for Mac Jones is disrespectful and Cam Newton is body shaming Mac Jones.
Cam Newton Called Out By Bart Scott For His Mac Jones Nickname
Weeks ago, New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton came up with a nickname for rookie quarterback Mac Jones, dubbing him “Mac and Cheese”. But one analyst doesn’t seem to like Newton’s name choice.
Appearing on ESPN’s Keyshawn, JWill & Zubin, NFL analyst Bart Scott admonished Newton for giving Jones a “disrespectful” nickname. He accused Newton of “body shaming” Jones by giving him a name like that.
“That’s disrespectful, right? That brings up something totally different,” Scott said. “‘Mac and Cheese’ is like one of the most disrespectful nicknames that I’ve heard in a long time, and this dude thinks it’s a term of endearment. Like, I don’t know if somebody told him, he’s pretty much body shaming him.”
That seems like a bit of a stretch from Bart Scott here. Jones’s first name is Mac, and Mac & Cheese is a pretty easy name to come up with.
In this video, three bear cubs wandered onto a golf course in North Carolina and one started playing with the flagstick on one of the holes.
Check out this video, this story is all over the internet, a crazy fan ran onto the field at the Dodgers game and security couldn't catch him, so the Dodgers ball girl took him out.
