Article with quotes Thanks Flippateer

Elizabeth Price has decided to retire as an Elite to compete in College Gymnastics.

While I wish her the best luck and understand her desire to keep herself healthy for her future life as a College gymnast I cannot help but be highly disappointed that she has decided to retire right when she was coming into her own.

I just hope all the rumors I have heard about the Standford coaches being crazy lunatics isn’t true other wise Ebee has left one hell (Marta’s BS) for another.

Unknown veteran player needs to STFU.

A few years ago when Ortiz ran his mouth and made the comments about how maybe he should become a Yankee because they have less drama I told myself there is no point putting a player on a Pedestal because in the end they don’t have any loyalty to the said team they are playing for. This above tweet by Peter Gammons is exactly why I still feel this way.

First of all who is this so called veteran player to question the fan who pays their damn salary on how they should react to a player leaving town?

If it wasn’t for the fans the so called idiot veteran player who of course wouldn’t be dumb enough to make this comment to the media on record wouldn’t even have a job. He certainly wouldn’t be the over paid blow hard he is who made millions off these same fans he made fun of.

I guess my problem is I care too much about this team and they clearly don’t give a flying fuck about me as a paying customer or as a fan. So why do I even watch this sport anymore? or any sport at all?

The above quote reminds me of the scene in Fever Pitch where after the Red Sox lose game 3 of the ALCS before the comeback Jimmy Fallon’s character see’s 3 Red Sox players eating dinner at a bar, laughing and smiling. To them it is just a game while you want to know what I was doing after they blew that game? I was slamming things and staying up til 5 am because I couldn’t sleep.

In the end sport is just a game and in the end I am an idiot for supporting any of it.
