| ^^^ i been waiting all weekend for #IfTonyStewartWasBlack |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 23
|
 I was thinking "What if Kevin Ward was black?" |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 60
|
| most people are already putting the brunt of the blame on Ward |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 107
|
| "business as usual" - his manager |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 2
|
| sh*t is bananas. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 4
|
| I haven't watched the clip... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 3
|
| that was definitely part of my initial reaction (eg. WTF is he doing?) |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 5
|
| I think it's on both of them |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 6
|
| what he did was dumb but it happens all the time |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 14
|
| all the time. nobody speeds thru a caution AT THE CRASH SITE. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 15
|
 that's the other thing, the flag was out. other drivers avoided |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 18
|
| but it was easier for other drivers to avoid him |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 123
|
| they ain't going 150 on a yellow |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 21
|
| oh, the gawker thinkpieces are being fervently typed up right now. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 7
|
| white people's infatuation with "being shown up" strikes again |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 9
|
| Dude got killed by his own hotheadedness. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 10
|
| Yeah, that nigga hopped through like 2 lanes of traffic |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 11
|
| Guy thought he was in Wacky Races |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 17
|
| they do it all the time tho... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 26
|
| They do, but it's fucking dangerous. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 28
|
| That's *why* it's considered a 'rebel' sport, I suppose. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 35
|
| i watched the clip....dude ran out into that traffic |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 12
|
| e "provoked" the collision |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 13
|
| I mean this happened in the course of competition |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 16
|
| it's not a coincidence. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 19
|
| he wasn't directly in front of him. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 24
|
| he was weaving around that first car to confront Stewart's car |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 27
|
| lol no. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 31
|
| k. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 34
|
| not exactly. it was a race under caution |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 22
|
| Stewart tried the fake hit move and actually hit Ward by accident. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 20
|
| by fake hit move you mean swerve toward him and swerve |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 33
|
| Yup.. Coffee.. I needed it. But "Fake hit move" sounded cool. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 70
|
| I'm in Nascar country, sports radio has been all over it. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 25
|
| i dont follow the sport and even i know he is a prick |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 29
|
| I follow sports but I don't follow Nascar... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 42
|
| yeah....in addition to prolly being the best pure driver... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 44
|
| he got into a fight with a photographer or something, i recall that |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 46
|
| nothing more tragic than white on white violence |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 30
|
| Ward's family need to sue the tire company and the race track |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 32
|
| How does this compare to Donte Stallworth? |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 36
|
| geez, man...this doesn't compare to Stallworth at all... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 38
|
| but OTHER THAN THAT it's pretty much the same |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 40
|
| BOTH CARS HAD 4 TIRES!!! |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 41
|
| to answer seriously, both involved a negligent pedestrian |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 108
|
| ... You know someone will ask this question especially if Stewart is cha... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 43
|
| How'd that class action you opted out of work out? |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 45
|
| I never said, I opted out.... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 47
|
| i thought you decided not to based on quick math |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 49
|
| u a fan bc u aware of his stupidity hilarious |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 50
|
| First off, I'm not stupid and Second, following a dude around OKP... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 52
|
| I'm not you so I don't cry to mods. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 51
|
| didn't stewart have a wreck at the same track a couple yrs ago? |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 37
|
| Not the same track but same type of race |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 53
|
| wait we're thinkin' of two different races...but around the |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 57
|
| wait a minuite...so two people CAN be responsible for a terrible outcome... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 39
|
| I don't think there can be a comparison |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 48
|
| if a boxer punched another fighter long after the bell |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 54
|
| James Butler kinda did that to Richard Grant |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 55
|
| happened during the event, but wasn't necessarily "part of the game" |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 56
|
| As far as NASCAR is concerned it's an unfortunate event |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 58
|
| You see what you just did there though. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 59
|
| btw NASCAR has nothing to do with this, really. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 62
|
| My understanding is that when a crash occours |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 119
|
| It's absolutely speculation, but speculation is par for the course.. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 121
|
| not remotely the same |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 61
|
| we haven't seen enough to know that Ray Rice intended.... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 64
|
| what? that doesn't make any sense |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 78
|
| Never mind. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 103
|
| well that was dumb as fuck lol |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 85
|
| right. I mean it does appear Stewart could've/should've done more |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 68
|
| how is this the same as Vick? |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 63
|
| it's moreso about the reluctance to treat Stewart like a criminal. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 65
|
| that's because Vick was conducting criminal activity though, no? |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 66
|
| But that's the thing. Even the POSSIBILITY of it being a criminal act.. |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 67
|
| maybe. we also have to keep in mind this is NASCAR (auto racing)... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 69
|
| that's a lie |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 71
|
| I haven't seen that. From the sports commentary I've seen... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 76
|
| apparently you haven't been watching or reading any national news |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 82
|
| I didn't ask for your help. Carry on though. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 87
|
| nigga you need help from somebody |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 109
|
| right. that's it. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 111
|
| but the possibilty HAS been discussed....hella much |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 72
|
| every report i've heard has mentioned the criminal investigation |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 73
|
| i heard the county sheriff's press conference today |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 74
|
| nah man cmon |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 75
|
| but this is my point. I'm not saying that journalists SHOULDN'T be fair.... |
|
Aug 11th 2014 | 77
|
| u fighting shadows yo |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 79
|
| We haven't seen the tape of him KO'ing his lady. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 89
|
| Sorry dude but when it comes to think kind of "fair" ... |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 84
|
| First, I'm not angry. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 88
|
| This incident isn't terribly unlike Marty McSorley, in my mind. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 90
|
| Not unless the goal is to change the subject. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 91
|
| but Vick and Ray Rice are good comparisons. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 92
|
| comparisons of how there is a difference in how THE MEDIA.. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 93
|
| Jesus christ lmao |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 94
|
| let's throw a trash can through a window at AP's main offices. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 95
|
| ion't even know how to respond man |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 96
|
| you're supposed to agree that the media treats black men |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 97
|
| always thought those starbucks frapp things at the gas station |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 98
|
| let's get it. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 100
|
| You must believe that if Tony Stewart were black all would be the.. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 99
|
| If Tony Stewart was a black successful NASCAR driver |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 101
|
| Never mind. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 102
|
| the irony of that response is not lost on me |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 115
|
| It is speculation, although I don't agree that it's "empty". |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 120
|
| i just fail to see the connection and i'm not alone |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 127
|
| You don't have to see the connection, fam. No disrespect. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 131
|
| How do you know it's worse? |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 132
|
| So my opinion should be based on what the courts do? |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 136
|
| No, I'm saying media coverage shouldn't be based on opinions! |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 145
|
| I agree it shouldn't be based on opinions. But true journalism.. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 146
|
| we don't, i agree with your overarching point, just dont see context |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 152
|
| RE: This incident isn't terribly unlike Marty McSorley, in my mind. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 117
|
| was hoping you'd weigh in on that |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 126
|
| McSorley wrote about his side of it in a book about fighting |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 128
|
| interesting |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 134
|
| the funny thing to me all the crazy shit that happened in the past |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 151
|
| OK, largely true, WTF does it have to do with Tony Stewart? |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 116
|
| He's a white NASCAR driver from the south |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 80
|
| Sure, Indiana is pretty much "the South." |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 81
|
| agreed. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 83
|
| i'm waiting for the accident recreation |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 86
|
| nah.. these drivers get out of their cars all the time these days |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 125
|
| My whole thing is that dude wouldn't have died had he stayed.... |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 104
|
| If you made no attempt to avoid him? Yes, you're responsible. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 105
|
| Split second, and you froze up... |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 112
|
| That could be anyone's defense. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 114
|
| which one is black? |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 106
|
| The driver is black... The pedestrian is Drake... n/m |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 113
|
| ^ the Tiger Woods defense. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 118
|
| That shit looks suspect as hell, on some "this mofo BETTER move..." |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 110
|
| he should be in jail |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 122
|
| lmao what? |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 124
|
| criminal damage to property, perhaps. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 130
|
| those factors sort of negate anything being an accident |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 138
|
| he could've been arrested for something other than hitting the car. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 139
|
| true, but all that moves the situation further away from relevance |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 141
|
| yeppers. |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 142
|
| i was sober |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 143
|
| . . . |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 144
|
| there is zero reason to think he was drunk lol |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 148
|
| negligent driving was the deal |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 133
|
| negligence means it wasnt an accident tho |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 137
|
| were you drunk when you hit the car? |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 129
|
| at the very LEAST, it was an accident |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 135
|
| an accident means its not manslaughter |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 140
|
| no, that's not really accurate, if i understand correctly |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 147
|
| bruh do Sprint cars even have rear view mirrors? |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 149
|
| who knew a post about racing... |
|
Aug 12th 2014 | 150
|
| it already happened in OKS on this same topic |
