Maybe this will open the eyes of the Letter community that things just aren’t so bad here in the states.

Yes, everyone knows that you can’t acknowledge a problem here if it’s potentially worse elsewhere.

rumors are, he had issues with bronchitis

desert air? covid+booster+bronchitis?


Did he try to make himself a martyr? Qatar won't give a shite, neither will dems and repubs who take money from terrorist funding oil barons

will we ever get truth, we know the msm won't give it to us

Yeah, he decided to let himself die a few days after his 48th birthday, having not seen his wife in a month... for clicks and political/social media currency. That shite is very important after death.

This thread goes further off the rails with every post.

Holy frick


When he decided to wear the rainbow soccer shirt and reported that they made him change it, was he not trying to make himself the center of attention for a huge off field story?

Oh don't get me wrong, I made a thread on the soccer board with the headline "Grant Wahl is being a chode again" when he did that.

There were many things I didn't like about him as a reporter. Everything was a grandstand, but god damn, saying he "got his wish" is insanity. I promise you, he didn't wish for death to get more notoriety.

I didn’t mean that he directly got his wish. He indirectly got his wish of being the center of a big soccer story.

He’s the “Big J” journalist that everyone mocks.

His rainbow tshirt stunt was lame and is there even any footage of him being told to take it off by officials?

I love how he had to announce 3 days ago it was his birthday on Twitter + his whole self worth seemed to be social clout (even based on the photo in his Twitter banner).

Think a few people would disagree with this considering the massive amounts of money funneled in the name of religion.


I follow you. I would not call Joel Osteen a fundamentalist. Nor would I call the Catholic Church fundamentalist. Money makers? Absolutely. Not fundamentalist.

So do christians count in this as well or just Muslims? Many christians have killed because their God or holy book told them to.


They absolutely DID. Past tense. 100 years ago. Inside of 100 years ago you can only point to Irish and Protestants vs. Catholics. Even that is 40-50 years old now. Muslims are the current unified undisputed champs of awful shite in the name of religion.

Fake News. The 11th century MSM was a puppet for a young Joe Biden. Lol

Seriously though. It was the 11th century. Not saying it didn’t happen. But you have to go way back.

Did you know Grant Wahl covered 8 World Cups?

No? He tweeted three different times, five days ago, that he was a special event for media members that have covered 8 World Cups.

I hope everyone on Tiger Droppings finds someone to love them at least half as much as Grant Wahl loved himself.

So it’s ok to (maybe) kill him?


It’s not okay to rape someone dressed like a hoe and walking alone at night in a rough part of town, and it’s not okay to break into an unlocked car and steal everything, and it’s not okay to murder someone who is heavily criticizing and antagonizing an authoritarian government while staying in said country, but none of them are a very good idea either.

Maybe you don’t know exactly what an aneurysm is.

Or maybe you’re just blinded by your ridiculous beliefs.

There are posters here who will unironically claim that anyone younger than 100 who has had the shot and dies died because of the shot.
