Mohamed Ali Has Passed Away

Here's the untold "truth" about Ali...and this guy hits the nail on the head! Rather than spout the accolades of Ali as the "greatest" athlete of them all, Ali was the beginning and biggest influence in the downward spiral of sportsmanship that has continued to this very day!

"Ali was able to — allowed to — popularize and commercialize trash-talking, name-calling and chest-pounding — something we’ve never recovered from — as few in the media wish to be identified as uncool, to knock something not in society’s best interests, applauding acts of bad-is-good they’d never encourage in their own."

This is the time for white people's subconsciousness to go all anti muslim so no problem trying to bring down a public hero especially now that he is dead.

..actually, and the truth be told, Ali began his one man disintegration (definition, to separate into parts or lose intactness or solidness; break up)of true sportsmanship BEFORE he became a Muslim, when he was known as "Cassius Clay!" But you probably were not even born yet when that occurred!

Athlete of the Century? Who they trying to shuck? No athlete that performs only twice a year can be considered as the athlete of the Century! My choice would have been Nolan Ryan! 7 NO HITTERS, 2 of them after he turned 40! 5,000 strikeouts and 12 ONE HITTERS!

...ok, forget the age factor. You were just plain WRONG on your assessment that the poke at Ali was due to his Muslim religion. Had nothing to do with it!

Sure it does not. I get it. Minorities suck. We get annoyed of their preaching to save their own rights. The common thing is not to care for them as they care for themselves and get annoyed by the way they always preach and preach. But this does not change the fact that the words are true. You can find Ali and alikes annoying and not fitting to the ideal sportsmanship enough, but he is talking about a social class fact, a matter of exploitation of centuries. And every human being hates to feel guilt and their defensive mechanism to blame other spots joins right away. When you serve in the navy, you feel like you have to be nationalist. Not emphasize the faults. It's the same thing everywhere. But actually when you serve and fight and meet the enemy, you learn that no person is different from one another because of race or religion. The hate is a bag of seeds planted to our hearts by the ones who govern. so that there always is a common enemy, and people should get closer to the governor with the idea of integratedness, solidarity.

...never said I hated him, just that he was the perpetrator of bad sportsmanship way back when he started his boxing career, that has escalated to every professional sport being played on this planet!

I think trash talking is older and more common that Ali, sir.
