This is way out there but Metallica nearly killed the MP3 format, portable digital music players, and streaming music. I used to be a huge Metallica fan. Then they went after Napster. They became huge a-holes and the whole thing was handled poorly.

As a fellow Jesuit alum, my dad (and I) liked him. No I will always think of him as the biggest douche ever.


My friends older brother graduated a year or 2 behind him and always told us when he was at Miss St that he was a grade A douche. So my expectations were set and Will Clark met my expectations. It's one thing to be a douche at times. It's another thing to go out of your way to be a douche most of the time.

I'm almost 40. I'm glad social media and Facebook didn't exist for me growing up and you only saw your favorite athletes on the field, musicians in concert or mtv and actors on screen. I'd probably have hated or rolled my eyes a lot like today towards many athletes, actors/actresses and musicians if it did. It would never happen now because of their huge inflated egos and their constant " NEED" for more attention. I idolized Darryl Strawberry growing up and wanted to have a baseball career just like him. Back then I didn't know he was a coke head haha oops

Off track - Every time I see a picture of someone "famous" wearing sunglasses indoors I wish it was a before and after picture of someone knocking the sunglasses off their face. We already know who you shite heads are, get over yourself.

Not when it comes to his politics. "George Bush doesn't care about black people."

I agree with this. He doesn't really push race too much in his music. I'm a big fan of his music so let the downvotes rain because I know he's popular around these parts

I've known Will Clark on a personal level, so so, fort about 10 years, and he is a grade A douche. His brother lives in my subdivision and he's been poaching on the hunting club that joins the back of our neighborhood. I guess it's in their genes.

Athlete: Lebron by a mile. He has the platform to big a unifier but instead peddles bullshite consistently bc its politically expedient. I think he's a great player but certainly a fraud and extremely insecure.

Celeb: pretty much anyone in Hollywood who is political.

This.

My grandpa was devastated. He'd never been north of South Carolina but borderline idolized Joe Pa, because he thought he was such an incredible man.

It really wrecked him up when his atrocities went public.

Chipper Jones when he started having a million affairs (I was like 9 and thought athletes were God)

Kevin Durant when he basically threw the Western Conference Finals vs the team he was planning to join.
