If We Won’t Listen To Our Heroes, Who Will We Listen To?
In 1999, when I was fourteen years old I remember renting a movie called "The Hurricane." It starred Denzel Washington and I thought it was a movie about boxing. Little did I know it would be about so much more. I watched that movie and by the end of it, I was angry, disgusted, and sad. Rubin Carter was targeted by racism and put in…

Hollywood Joe vents his frustrations with Major League Baseball, the players and more.This is how I feel about baseball right now. The league is going to burn itself to the ground over money, greed and power. When it becomes a pile of ashes, you're not going to have anyone around to sweep them up. #MLB
NASCAR announced that the Cup Series would be racing at Nashville Speedway in 2021. I think this is a great move. I've been saying for a few years now they need to drop races where they go to twice a year and start going into new territories. I think this is a great move for NASCAR.
Impact Wrestling showed a teaser video for Slammiversary on July 18th. If all the people they showed in the video show up to Impact it's going to dramatically change the landscape of the wrestling industry. #IMPACTonAXSTV
Today, a lot of sports teams and organizations issued statements about racial injustice and inequality. Let me blunt if I can. A good majority of them were halfhearted and half-ass, These organizations and teams only support the causes that make them look good. Most of these owners have never struggled a day in their life. They wouldn't know what inequality, injustice, and oppression was if it hit them in the face. They have enough money and resources to influence change but they lack the courage and wisdom to do so!
Good to see R-Truth get the WWE 24/7 Championship back from Rob Gronkowski -Gronk. I wish Gronk wasn't going back to the NFL because I feel like he and Truth would have had a hell of feud over that title. #NFL #WWE
If We Won't Listen To Our Heroes, Who Will We Listen To? www.hollywoodsworldofsports.com/2020/06/if-we-wont-listen-to-our-heroes-who-will-we-listen-to/
I've always tried to keep this forum as a safe space for people to come to and have a good time and not have to worry about all the stresses of life. However, what's going on in the country right now can no longer be ignored. My message is this: Racism and Hate have no place here. Destruction and Violence have no place here. As a sports guy, you know things are getting bad when athletes are hitting the streets to peacefully protest or stop the destruction and violence. The only things I find acceptable are compassion, equality, love, kindness, tolerance and support for one another. Stay safe and God Bless you all!
I don't think the ESPN 30 for 30 did Lance Armstrong any favors judging from the reactions I'm seeing on social media. I'll be honest, I didn't watch because quite frankly I never was interested in what he was doing.
