Remember when Tonya Harding’s goons busted up Nancy Kerrigan? Remember that video of her screaming “WHY, WHY, WHY?” Well, I laugh at that shit every time. In fact, sometimes I cry from laughing so hard.
This probably makes me a horrible person and that’s fine. I’m willing to accept that. But I’m not alone. I know there are others out there. ESPN contributor Bomani Jones manned up this morning.

Her reaction is just…it’s just so dramatic. Mind you, I’ve never been jacked with a police baton, I imagine it hurts a little. I’d probably scream out “FUCK” or “Goddamn that hurt.”
But I ain’t goin “WHY, WHY, WHY.” I ain’t goin’ there.
And you know damn well that shit would have been autotuned had it happened today.
Again, yes, I’m a horrible person. I know. Carry on with your day.
