This was a weird story to see coming from Vice but turns out it is from one of the writers who left Deadspin.

Seems like he didn’t take his own advice:

Lol Mark Chmura…always projection. He got busted in a hot tub with girls at a prom party or some shit. He used to be my favorite athele too before that happened because he went to the same middle/high school I did in MA.

Lol I forgot about that hot tub thing

All I can ever think of now when I hear about Chmura is how Jim Rome glossed him “American Chewy” because of the hot tub thing (American Beauty had come out the year before).

Oof. I came from a small town in Western MA and he was the only athlete to go big time so he was a bit of a legend.

I literally wrote about him in my Bar Mitzvah speech. I don’t remember about what, since it’s been 20 years, but at the time it was big deal to me. I was pretty shocked/sad when this whole thing happened.

Lots of trump supporters sure are upset the president gets booed. (terry, the coaches in the game, etc etc)

I hope his fucking shingles come back

The president has been making the rounds at several sporting events over the last week or so. Trump was at Game 5 of the World Series in Washington D.C. and he was at UFC 244 in New York City. In both instances, Trump received a smattering of cheers and boos from the crowd.

Lol.

If he gets booed there, he’s pretty much left with a NASCAR race as the only safe space he has left.

Maybe they could organize a pick-up football game between coal miners and the KKK.

Trump killing Bama’s playoff hope with his putrid presence

Holy shit at that LSU catch whether or not it stands.

Trump went to UFC, main event stopped too soon, everyone mad. Trump went to nats game, nats lose, now alabama.

Did they show him on scoreboard? Did he get booed?
lsu kicking ass

He was cheered for the most part as far as I can tell.

LSU’s offense is annoying as fuck with how they act like they running a 2 min drill, relax, look at the sideline, and then run the play.
