It’s pitiful that Adam Rippon is considered a “Star” and invited onto the show... Just because he’s gay. Never accomplished anything. Should celebrate the gold medalists not people who don’t medal (and no the team bronze doesn’t really count for him).

Representing the US in the Olympics isn't accomplishing anything? He's probably a bigger "star" than a cornerback for a bad football team.

Try not to sound like such a dumb bigot.

I guess it comes down to how "star" is defined: accomplishment or recognition by the public.

this is very true

It's easy to forget on a message board where we all have equal footing. If you were to talk to these people in real life, one look at them and hearing their voice it's like, "ohhhh ok this person is actually semi-retarded...carry on".

I don't understand complaining about Rippon.  He was a big story and US face of the recent Olympics.  This is a athletes edition of Dancing with the Stars.  He's an athlete.  

I'm not a fan of Tonya Harding being allowed on the show though.  I'm not against her making a living but she shouldn't be allowed to be in contests featuring Athletes.  She wants to write a book, fine.  Make a movie, fine.  Compete with people who didn't resort to violence off the field is just wrong.  She should never be grouped with fellow athletes for anything again.

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      By The Question · Posted

      You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with.

      I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
