0:22.4 | So going into today, I have two main thoughts. One, you only have a few hours left if you want to snag some awesome, including this embroidered blue tie-dye hoodie at shoppedfranco.com, and two, I always got to be plugging, but two, you know, over the last few years and most specifically this year, I've been trying to be a much better person. And one of the ways I've been trying to do that is not engaging in super negative pile-on behavior. But if I told you that it's been easy for the past 36 hours not posting Nate Robinson memes, I would be lying to you. |
0:28.2 | And I hate that ridiculous caveman part of my brain. And for those unfamiliar, Nate Robinson, |
0:33.3 | former basketball player, very well known, decides I'm going to fight Jake Paul in a boxing |
0:38.1 | match, and over the weekend, he got viciously knocked out. Like record scratch, dead Mufasa |
0:43.4 | meme knocked out. In fact, the only thing that was more vicious than that knockout was the mockery |
0:48.4 | and memes online afterwards. In fact, it got so bad that famed boxer and shit talker Floyd |
0:54.1 | Mayweather was like, y'all need to chill. |
0:56.2 | Though Floyd seemed to be more specifically aiming at those who were kind of acting like they were supporting Nate, but then the moment he got knocked out flipped on him. |
1:03.0 | And even more specifically, talking about black athletes and black entertainers. |
1:06.0 | Posting a photo of he and Nate with a caption, |
1:08.0 | Nate, I'm proud of you and I will always stand behind all my brothers. I will never kick my brother when he's down. It's okay for people to voice their opinions |
1:14.4 | on social media, but no black athletes or black entertainers, especially black NBA players |
1:19.5 | should be making a mockery out of you. We are supposed to all stand with each other through the good, |
1:23.5 | bad, and ugly. I'm here to uplift you and let you know we all love you and congratulate you for just making an effort. And then, seemingly because he knew people would come after him for having |
1:31.3 | beef in the past. For writing side note, the times I've had issues with another brother is when they |
1:35.1 | came at me first. I was just defending myself. And well obviously a post like that is not directed |
1:39.1 | towards me. This story in general made me think, why are so many of us so comfortable |
1:44.3 | piling on Nate Robinson here? |
1:45.9 | Especially since so many of us wouldn't put ourselves |
1:48.2 | in his shoes, we wouldn't do that same thing. |
1:50.2 | We would not decide to box Jake Paul. |
1:52.7 | Though I think you could easily argue, |
