The Young Turks

 

Vine.

People like to identify eras. An over looked era is 2008-2013. Something changed in 2013/14.

But that's a story for another day.

I have recurring injuries from my youth. For the first year and half of secondary school, I decided to join my school's rugby team. I hit 6'1 when I was 13 years old and never had one last growth spurt to make me 6'5 like America's favourite evilchad. 

I played Loosehead Prop. First day of practice, 4 to 6 after school, had some kid get a concussion. The coach told him to walk it off. 

Let's talk about the "coaching staff" for a minute. The coaching staff consisted of a middle aged man trying to teach us strategies and tactics he learnt over the weekend on youtube or a half time breakdown. Surrounding him was 3-4 assisstant coaches. These assistants were really just former students who spent 6 hours a week coaching us. They were mostly failsons who peaked in secondary school and weren't really able to get shit poppin' afterwards. I suspect the only reason they were there was to look for 16 year old girlfriends at the adjacent all girls sister school.

Long story short is knee injuries from back then has me in pain anytime I try to squat more than 100 kilos.

Part of the reason why I have these injuries was playing with general retards who themselves barely understood the rules of the game. I was eventually moved to a mixed school because my parents realised the old school wasnt poppin' academically and relied on historical clout to charge the prices that they charged. Nothing really changed much. 

One thing I came to realised is school rugby teams tend to operate like cults filled with deeply closeted homosexuals. Only thing that changed with collegiate rugby teams is the homosexuality is much more explicit. Everyone else I've talked to can relate to the whole cult thing.

And speaking of closeted homosexuals, did you hear what happened to Isaiah Rashad ?
At its essence, this place is really like one of those housewife/teen gossip magazines they'd sell in stores back when the Motorola Razr V3 was the hottest phone on streets and when 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Tryin was being blasted on every car speaker from New York to LA. From Mexico to Croatia.

Turns out Isaiah Rashad is a closted homo and video of him doing certain activities has leaked online.

To end it off.
