Kanye West interrupts Taylor Swift: Athletes Say What?!?
If you've been anywhere on this series of tubes we call the internet in the past two days you've undoubtedly run into some kind of mention of Kanye "George Bush doesn't care about black people" West stealing the stage from Taylor Swift at the VMA's. Everyone from President Obama (link to audio), to Pink have chimed in with their opinion of the "man" and his antics. The jockosphere was no exception when it came to speaking about the outburst.
Instead of watching the season opener of Sunday Night Football it seems that many players were watching the VMA's. Surprisingly, one of the first tweets about the event was by the normally quiet, self promoting, only sports talking, PTIShow:
Not much later Vikings big guy Bryant Mckinnie immediately chimes in and gives his two cents:
Kanye West was wrong 4 that! That was a little ignorant and he stole that girls shine. not a good look
NBA star player Sheldon Williams calls Kanye out more on his apology than on his initial actions
kanye is seriously is a dumb ass b a man and say u were wrong don't blame ur mom and not having time to think bout her death
Self proclaimed trophy wife Ashley Thompson also chimed in with a few random tweets
And... I think Kanye is an asshole... And... I'm hungry. That is all.
Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle, Tank Johnson, reminds Kanye that everything he has can be gone if he continues to be an idiot. (And Tank would know. Look how the Bengals game ended last week)
Kanye west needs 2 sit his ass down n thank God 4 his blessings. cuz God will take it ALL back. his gift is bcoming a curse. Jay getcha man.
if you think ur 2 big 2 get ur blessings takin away keep doing wrong n youll soon see. i love kanye but he just made me sick to my stomach
Swin Cash agrees with what Kanye said, but not the approach of his delivery
OMG Kanye was right but dang he aint have to do that to Taylor!!! I'm in shock! It aint her fault, he should already no what its hitn for!
Perhaps the only person to not facetiously back Kanye is Seahawks linebacker, Aaron Curry
Shots out to Kanye West...Speak Ya Mind Kid...
Not everyone was able to give their thoughts in 140 characters or less. The incident sparked one-time Philadelphia Eagle, one-time New York Jet, one-time Oakland Raider, now Chicago Bears (?) full back, Jason Davis to write in one of his three blogs. (Blog for kids, Girl He Crazy - don't say nothing tooo hmmmm, Daily Walk)
Kayne this and Kayne that is all over the Internet today and rightly so I suppose in this modern world we live in, but when is too much attention enough. Was he out of line? Yes. did Taylor Swift deserve that in her moment? Of course not. Its a easy cop out to say that this was a mere case of Kanye being Kanye, but its not that serious. This wasn't the Oscars, nor the Grammys. This was the MTV VMA awards. I mean give me a break. Even the Oscars and Grammys are just awards shows at the end of the day. Its not the end of world for either of the parties involved. That's the right side of my brain, lets switch to the left. If I'm not mistaking the ruler of the free world was making a speech in front of not only our country other countries via satellite and was also interrupted! There was an out cry but it seems to me that the VMA uproar was far greater than this one. This is our President people give me a break. Sure Taylor went four times platinum, but she doesn't run arguably the strongest country in the world. I find that odd. We need to check where our priorities lie. And check all the NIGGERS being addressed to Kayne on twitter, its crazy. I sure as hell didn't see blacks calling the congressman and CRACKER for spazing on Obama, I mean at least not publicly. Some of you know how racist old black men are behind closed doors, but that's another blog another day. That is all...
Davis makes a few good points in his post. But truthfully I didn't realize that the VMA's were the red headed step child of the Oscars and Grammy's. Guess I learned something today.
Kevin Durant, after tweeting about the incident for a few days changes course and makes a prediction on the future. I hope it doesn't come true.
Taylor Swift sounds really good..watch kanye do a song wit her lol
