I'm going to guess after about 14 everyone knows quoting Hitler is stupid unless you're promoting hate or being an asshole.

I guess this is one of the downstream effects of labeling everything that comes out of the mouths of the likes of LeBron James and Richard Sherman as exquisite profundities that leave even skilled orators in awe: Athletes are probably just as dumb of the rest of us. And just like how "the rest of us" includes guys that think the Stars and Bars are their "heritage", so too does the group of professional athletes include idiots that think quoting Hitler's hatred of American Jews is uplifting to black people, and the rest of us are just misunderstanding.

This effect is amplified by the fact that Deadspin et al. have conditioned us to expect the words of a Rhodes Scholar when an athlete speaks about social issues, when instead we get literally Hitler.

Come on, you're smarter than this. I agree that grouping all athletes together and pretending they are geniuses is dumb and pandering.

So too is comparing anything LeBron and especially Sherman have ever said to this Jackson situation. You're being the flip side to the same coin you're bitching about.

I guess DeSean Jackson was busy literally quoting Hitler yesterday.

The passage reads:

“Hitler said, ‘because the white Jews knows [sic] that the Negros are the real Children of Israel and to keep Americas secret the Jews will black mail America.

‘The will extort America, their pan to world domination won’t work if the Negroes know who they were.

‘The white citizens of America will be terrified to know that all this time they’ve been mistreating and discriminating and lynching Children of Israel.’”

:lol: Don't try to condescend to me using my own intelligence. I also didn't compare the specifics of what they said, I contrasted their labeling as geniuses by the media with the reality of the stupidity it takes to quote Adolf Hitler in an effort to uplift black people.

I don’t know who else we are referring to. That’s the same crowd who wanted Brees to apologize.

LeBron's a fucking retard and every time he's had to say something that hasn't been scripted for him it shows.

Which ones? His take on the Newton contract was dumb as hell.

Jackson should be either cut or suspended. That should have happened already.

It'd be gutless if there isn't some sort of meaningful discipline. Can't take any future moral stance they take seriously then.

You made this portion of your idiotic narrative up. "The media" has never labeled athletes geniuses. You lied about that as usual.

How dumb are you? Oops I already know. Your average 12 year can decipher between the use of generalizations and non generalizations. I guess internet litigators cannot.
1. You used a generalization and actually believed that you were providing support for it by citing ONE DEADSPIN ARTICLE.

2. You conflated Lebron James Basketball Player with Lebron James Woke Social Justice Activist and actually believed that you 'd made a valid point.

I have always known you were stupid but damn.
Quote:
ESPN's Brian Windhorst has a new profile on LeBron; it's good, and ostensibly about how LeBron uses his uncommonly good memory to enhance to his more obvious physical talent. It's full of relevant basketball examples and wide-eyed onlookers. It's also front-loaded with some stories that are actually more impressive.

1. Can you find anywhere in the article where the author claims that Lebron has a genius political mind?

2. Can you explain how one DEADSPIN article constitutes "The Media"?

If not then your guy Litigation Notes is simply lying again.
