    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    I haven't clicked on Canzano's article, but if there is a section you can respond publically to the article (comments section) . . . someone should post the article from last year and ask why he is writing another article on this when he already wrote about this.

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    Yeah. It's funny. It wasn't much of an issue the first time around. But now that everyone else is shitting on Roy, bring it up again, and out come the typical pant-shitters. Boo-fucking-hoo. Seriously, the dude goes into the tunnel, has a private moment and prayer, and then busts ass on the floor. Get over it. A lot of guys do a lot worse. Anyone who's been in the military should be insulted by the way any athlete stands during the national anthem.

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    I remember it being a Canzano article/radio segment. In fact, I'm nearly positive it was, since I subscribe to the Oregonian. It was a nonstory then, but now that boards like this one are fanning the "Roy is selfish" flames, it's probably a talk radio magnet now.

    It was a non-issue the first time around. Now it's "Roy is a selfish d-bag". I have to constantly remind myself that most people on this board have zero sense of history and zero sense of perspective.

    Most people when they read a Canzano article, they turn it to level 10 disgust and they're done.

    See, my Canzanometer goes to 11. I disgust harder.

    Unfortunately, the knob broke off in my hand while reading this article. Now I just wish I had the last ten minutes of my life back.

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    I think the comments on o-live and here have been pretty overwhelmingly pro-Roy. Yes, there are a few (vocal) people who disagree with Roy's tunnel time, but by-and-large, I think "Canzano is a d-bag" is the consensus.

    At least two mods on this board seem to be anti-Roy to me. :dunno:

    Who cares? They're just two people. Mods are posters first, and banners of you second. :D

    I think Roy is getting an ego, but rightfully. I don't think Canzano is a d-bag, but I think he stirs up drama at times for his own attention.

    No. It's an insult to perfectly functioning douche bags to associate Canzono with them.

    I want to punch John Canzano in the nuts. I WILL PAY $1000.00 FOR A VIDEO OF YOU PUNCHING JOHN CANZANO IN THE NUTS!

    Actually Quick wrote about it ... so that makes JC even more weak sauce, he can't even generate his own "insta-controvery" articles, he has to steal them from his co-contributors from the O.

    You see all sorts of things, including guys joking around. Poking each other, talking, whatever. In the military, you stand at attention, straight, with hands at your sides. Anything else is considered disrespect to the country.
