I spend a good deal of time on Twitter, it’s really turned into a great place for breaking news – sports especially. I hate, however, when I come across athletes complaining about shit that really is an issue for the rest of us that are not filthy rich. I have a history of letting athletes know when they sound ridiculous. I’ve been blocked by Bernard Berrian for telling him to shut the fuck up, in so many words, and started a respectable little campaign on Twitter of having people send this post to Lebron James to let him know what an ass hat he is. While I don’t seek out athletes in order to berate them, I have a hard time keeping to myself when I see them say things like Reggie Bush recently did.

I didn’t, and you know what – I don’t care, at all… not even a little. You might be shocked at the level of “don’t give a shit” I am at on this “issue”. How about this issue. Among other things, you’ve screwed your alma mater out of post season play for 2 years for accepting things that could have bought you top-notch health insurance at age 20. Here’s a thought: use part of your 52.5 million dollar contract to buy your own god damn insurance you whiney bitch. The minimum salary for a rookie in the NFL is $325,000 so excuse me if I neglect to sympathize for a lack of benefits. If it wasn’t for football you’d probably be cleaning toilets at McDonald’s while struggling to graduate from community college so be grateful for your speed because it’s the only thing that separates you from any other kid that couldn’t pass 101 collegiate courses.

The only issue here is the fact that most professional athletes piss away all of their money before their careers fizzle out, and that’s your problem not ours. I think I speak for most fans when I say you won’t find any bleeding hearts out there to feel bad that you don’t get health insurance on top of your disgusting contract. Please stop complaining about things you don’t have. I could give the underprivileged-people-all-over-the-world speech, but I’ll just call you an asshole instead.
