Damn I was expecting a Goodyear commercial ESPN.com has a Goodyear advertisment at the top of their main page today. "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom ofspeech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given usthe freedom to demonstrate. And it is the soldier who salutes theflag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, andwho allows the protester to burn the flag."Marine Chaplain Dennis Edward O' Brien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plaid Paint Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Could you possibly be any more misleading and untrue in your post?I doubt it.It most certainly was not a question of teams being allowed or not being allowed to race at Indy. Every single team was allowed to race, but 14 drivers are obviously sissies as they all ran their cars into the various garages after one parade lap, leaving only 6 c ars to compete in the actual race. Hey! Guess what!Eat me. Grow up.At least have the balls to admit that you were wrong, but I'm betting even that's way too much to ask of the likes of you.Punk.

Any guesses on who this former board member is? I'm not sure, but these childish retorts have a strange familiar ring. "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress.

Golly gee, I guess we're just supposed to let him waltz through life with no consequences for when he does things wrong or reports information in an utterly untrue manner and then refuses to face up to that fact and face the consequences.If he's 12 years old, then he's certainly old enough to hold his own, so why don't you go get a shiny new ballpeen hammer and a nice pile of sand and pound said sand up your ass and mind your own Og damn business.Friggin' poncer.
