Monday Moaning

After some time off and a few drinks, Monday Moaning is back!

After a personal and site related falling out with one of our partners, my pal Jeff and I felt the need to leave You Gab Sports...But we didn't want to quit...We wanted to move forward and build a better blogging community, not strictly tied to sports...No schedules...No stress...Open to all, to write about whatever they feel...So we have started the Gabbing Community ...We hope you will check it out and join in if you have something to say...

Now, onto the Moaning...

Word has come out the media whore Bruce Jenner...Yes, I still say Bruce because he didn't have his cock and balls removed, so I'm not calling him Caitlyn...So, the media whore is going to be gracing the cover of Sports Illustrated this Summer...NUDE...Only wearing an American flag and his Olympic medals...So Bruce, and the media and PC world want us to call him Caitlyn...and not him, but her...They are very adamant about it...But Caitlyn didn't win those fucking medals...Bruce did damn it! 

It's funny how Jenner and the media want this Caitlyn/Bruce separation, except when it's convenient for them, their story, and what's going to get him more notoriety...There was also the Jenner at the ESPY's excepting the Arthur Ashe Award...This dude in a dress stood there rambling on like he was the face of the women's rights movement...You have a dick, put on a dress and had plastic surgery and hormone injections...You did nothing to fight for women and their rights...You haven't done anything to help with the inequality of pay...You haven't done anything to fight against the states that are De-funding Planned Parenthood...and yes fuck sticks, Planned Parenthood does a helluva lot more for women's health issues than just abortions...(that's another blog)...Jenner you are not a voice for women...

You want to be a voice for Trans-gender people, have at it...There are plenty of people that are freaked out about this talk of what public fucking bathroom trans-people are going to use...That's become another one of those issues the media is harping on...The old look at this shiny thing while this real important evil shit is going on over here...How about this...If you stand to piss, men's room...If you sit to piss, ladies' room...

But this just isn't about Jenner and his need for attention...This is about Sports Illustrated desperately trying to stay relevant and getting on that hard riding PC train...SI, like so many (time sensitive)  magazines and newspapers has been losing people's interest...This is the 'I have a smart-phone fuckers, I don't need you' generation...SI's Swimsuit issue still does well...But honestly, porn is all over the Internet for free...And you can get swimsuit issue, spank-bank material right on Instagram...

So what did SI do this year?  They screwed up the swimsuit issue with PC shit, putting "plus sized" and older models in it...I hate to be a pig ladies, but I agree with comedian Mark Normand, not all women are beautiful, and we should have a standard when it comes to the old man's spank magazine...





When speaking of beautiful women, maybe Michael Rapaport put it best in the movie "Beautiful Girls"...





Everything described there Bruce, you ain't it!  You and SI are just a couple of whores trying to stay relevant in this Kartrashian World...


I'll sum it up like this...Bruce Jenner, no one wants to see a 66 year old woman with a dick wearing nothing but Olympic medals...And Sports Illustrated, you're alienating your core audience of baby-boomers by putting a 66 year old woman with a dick wearing only Olympic medals on you cover...

That's it for now...

Have a week!

In Case You Missed It.....

No, I am not on the Garbage Time with Katie Nolan payroll...I wish I was....But as long as Katie Nolan is going to be blasting Greg Hardy and the Dallas Cowboys, along with taking the mainstream sports and news media to task, I will continue to share bits of what she is doing...It's great to have a refreshing voice in the media, calling people on their bullshit....

So, in case you missed Wednesday's show, I have picked a couple clips to share...First: Hardy...






Seriously?  When is this dummy going to learn?   More importantly, when are the Cowboys management and PR department going to shut this dolt up?


Second: The media, Especially that fucking blowhard, Peter King...






Wow...That stings a bit doesn't Peter?  You got exposed as the gasbag so many of us assumed you were...Piece of shit!

Keep kicking their asses Katie!

Monday Moaning

Well.......

What is understood doesn't need to be discussed...Monday is here again...Summer is coming to a close...Football season is around the corner...I have been studying up on my college football, as I'll be doing a weekly post on featured games each week, and who you should be calling you bookie to bet on...I already did my HEISMAN studying...

-But before I start eyeing college football, let's talk a bit of Baseball...In the American league there has been much talk about the surprise Houston Astros and the Angels surging to catch them...There has been plenty of talk about the Yankees...There always is whether they are winning or not...And since the trade deadline, the Baseball world has had a boner for the Toronto Blue Jays...All this has distracted people from a team that has been solid all year, and is getting really hot right now...

The Baltimore Orioles...The Orioles are a half game ahead of the Angels in the Wild Card hunt, and only 4 games out of first in the division...They have decent starting pitching...A strong bullpen...and a solid lineup...Adam Jones and Chris Davis are crushing it...Manny Machado is steady with the glove and the bat...And OF Gerardo Parra may go down as the most overlooked deadline move, as he has taken advantage of getting steady playing time for the O's, batting .357 over his last 30 games...

Yes, Toronto made the sexy, win it now moves...The Orioles were pretty quite and added a couple minor pieces, and just stuck to what they have been doing...And it could end up paying off for them...The biggest question mark for Baltimore is their rotation...Their guys go out there, eat their innings, and try to keep them in games...But they don't have an ace...No one who dominates...That will most likely be their downfall if the get in the playoffs...But watching them fight for their playoff spot is fun...This is a gritty team...

(side note) : Can MLB please test Chris Davis for steroids...I watched him hit a HR Saturday, that was outrageous...The pitch was a slider, low and AWAY...Davis reached with a swing...No lower body in the swing at all...No legs, no nothing!  All wrists and arms, and it was a fucking laser to to right-center...Unreal!

-In I Don't Give a Shit News....Michael Sam has left football to focus on his mental health...Holy fucking shit balls, who knew he was still playing football? Oh wait, he wasn't...He was up in the Canadian Football League, collecting a check from the Montreal Alouettes...Sam had missed their first five games...Made his season debut a week ago, and had no tackles...Sam broke this not shocking at all news via Twitter...

"The last 12 months have been very difficult for me, to the point where I became concerned with my mental health. Because of this I am going to step away from the game at this time. I thank the Alouettes for this opportunity and hope to be back on the field soon,"

Just to be fair...I have no problem that Sam is openly gay and was trying to have a pro-football career...But the biggest reason the last 12 months have been so hard on Michael Sam, is Michael Sam...He kept pushing the narrative about being a gay football player...He kept himself and his story in the spotlight, signing a TV deal for Lifetime or where ever the fuck it was...He put it front and center, and then didn't understand the scrutiny...Let alone many teams didn't want the distraction he was creating...Oh, and besides that, he just wasn't that good.

But as some one who is clearly MENTALLY ILL and trying to get my head right,  I wish him good luck with getting his shit together.


-This week Kate Upton/Sports Illustrated released a video of Kate doing what she does best...Lounging around in a bikini and having her picture taken...Kate and that voice of hers goes on about how she loves tiny bikinis...Well, Kate, we love those tiny bikinis that barely hold your tits in too!







That's all I have for now...Really, do you need anymore?  No, you're going to watch Kate's video again!

Have a week.

Quality and Inequality

Okay, this is not something I would normally write about...I'm not a Soccer fan...But there was a lot of rumbling Tuesday evening about the U.S. Women's Soccer Team...I've heard great deal of talk about their amazing run...And I saw their celebrations...Now this first part isn't an anti-American, anti-patriotism rant...This is just my personal, honest view...

We have a tenancy in this country, during international competition, to make our teams out to be the underdog...With the exception of our Olympic Basketball team...Seriously, America's international sports teams are not underdogs...Well, except the U.S. Men's Soccer team (ranked 27thin the world)...But the media hype has made it out like this Women's Soccer team was a fucking surprise...No!  If Japan would have beat them, then the world would have been shocked...So quit acting like it was an amazing thing we just saw...If you actually tuned in...Everyone says they did but please...I turned that crap off after the 4th goal went in from mid-field...That Japanese goalie should have just off'ed herself after that mess!

Now, comes the second part of the story...And this isn't an anti-women rant...or men are evil rant...

It broke today that female Soccer players make squat compared to the male soccer players...Apparently the Men's World Cup winner, Germany, earned a prize of $35 million, while the U.S. Women won $2 million...That's a pretty fucking big difference...Now I don't know what kind of numbers men's soccer drew vs. women's soccer in the World Cup...But it's kind of tough to justify that big of a gap...

But then the story spun further...Then everyone started talking about what the pay difference was for men and women in pro soccer...Which is what these players do during the 4 year spans between the World Cup...The average yearly pay for men in pro soccer is $305,809....The average for women is between $14,000 and $16,000...Again, that is a brutal difference...But part of that difference is Women's pro Soccer does not draw...There are a good number of the men's teams that draw very well...The average MLS attendance is a pubic hair below 21,000...The average attendance in the NWSL is 4,804...So it's like this ladies...If you put asses in the seats, you'll get more money in your bank accounts...

Then you mix in endorsement deals and shit...

I can honestly tell you, other then that dude married to a Spice Girl, I haven't seen much of male soccer players trying to sell me shit...But I have seen Alex Morgan trying to sell me stuff...

And I bet she got paid to be in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue...

And I'd buy shit from her before I would from Spice Boy!

Thanks to her other dealings...Dealings because of Soccer and a good body, last year Morgan made over a million dollars...

So, while there is a huge inequality in pay between men and women's soccer...At the Professional level, due to attendance I see it's justification...Also, I would say there are less advertisers using dudes instead of T&A to sell us stuff...So maybe it's all a wash!
