The only good athletes are those who are intellectually challenged. When was the last time you heard a football player use proper grammar when speaking? Think about it.

Oh oh...sounds like Mike is a little bitter.  Grin I'm a good athlete. I'm also intelligent. I am simply too small to have ever competed professionally (5'7" 138 lbs.) I do not knock athletic achievement. One must build his body as well as his mind.

I admit, I was never into sports as a kid. I played golf between the ages of eight and 14. I was actually quite good. I even won a couple of local junior tournaments. But once I realized that women had smooth legs and breasts, I turned my eyes elsewhere.

Don’t you dare talk about small, Mr. D – I’m 5’ 5’’.

Sheeeeeeit, mofo!  You diiss da man's creds and his homies be all up in yo' jiggedy jank!  Seriously, demeaning a black man's shoes, making fun of the shape of his head, mocking the way he dances, getting dirt on his car and fucking with the way he games are all death sentences.  I had an irate BMW lessee calling the office wanting to talk to Buddy about debris in his car for  a week.  Problem was, Buddy is my business partner's Golden Retriever.

Bush the First was a baseball player in his younger days, you know. When you put Bush the First up against Bush the Second, the former seems to be better than the latter in almost every field.

actually she reported that his first set was 30 reps on each arm with 16 kilo dumbbells.  while that sounds like not much weight it would be beyond the capability of your average gym goer.  next she reported that he completed a set of 10 reps on each arm with 32 kilo dumbbells.  back in the day i was able to straight bar curl 135 for a competent set of 8.  never touched 32 kilos/70 lbs...worked out with olympic athletes, body builders and professional wrestlers.  some of the wrestlers did crazy weight....they were also crazy out of their mind on roids.  worked out with a boy who wrestled as part of a tag team called the powers of pain.  i thought my 135lb curl was really something until he stood up and comfortably worked out with 225lb.  after which he performed sets of 8 on declined bench press with 550lbs.....but i digress.  bo ain't no athlete and golf ain't no sport.

I'll vote for Obama because there simply is no other choice. And you 'Pubs know it, too.
