MODERATORS
The true surprise in this case was how long it took. It was literally on camera observed by millions via TV or thousands in the stadium. How was there any room for debate?!
There was no debate about if it happened, I'm sure that the only internal debate was about the cost of keeping him vs protecting their own because that's their policy. Fuck them for taking so long though, I sure hope that this is a big economical hit for them.
It took both the women's and men's national teams going on strike to generate enough pressure for this to happen. The Spanish FA is seriously screwed up
Agreed. This was not a moral decision at all, it was a numbers game.
Fuck that guy. Actually no...he can just fuck himself.
fuck jeremy clarkson too. Fuck that guy.
The farmer?!
Definitely. I like to use that version of the meme specifically for the irony. It was basically my reaction when I heard that he was essentially blacklisted. "Oh no! Aaaaaanywayyy."
fucking finally
I luv the euphemisms to "sexual assault"
Dude hung on like a dingleberry.
This guy needs to be kicked, first in the nuts and then out of sports forever. As a warning to every turbodouche like him.
Took his time though. POS

Lingered like a protein fart
Why doesn't he care about his poor mother on a hunger strike in that church?
Because she quit that rather fast.
