Alright NS, i have and online assignment due in a few ours and part of it is to post your favourite sports image of all time. I got a few in mind but wanted to see what you guys think. Post em up!
I feel horrible for not knowing this but what is going on?
Olympics after WWII? First black man from USA to get gold and he beat Germany which is why that guy behind him is going the heil hitler move? I know I could just google it but I would rather have NS explain it to me.
1936 Germany. Jesse Owens is the African-American guy on the top of the podium. He went to compete for the USA in and against a country that was nothing but ruthless to black people (similar to how they were to Jews) and proved a point by winning 3 or 4 golds. although it's kind of ironic in a way since the country he was competing for was almost just as terrible to blacks at that time and not very many years earlier was probably worse to blacks than Germany every was.
Same here but's in my living room so fuck you and your basement and your TV and Xbox down there. That stupid pull-out couch too, fuck that thing. It hurts to sleep on.
When michael phelp won his i think 7th medal at Beijing in the relay. Remember watching this and they won by the narrowest margin in history. Gives me chills thinking about it.
