Sports-Related Pictures of Ronald Reagan

PICTURES OF RONALD RONALD DOING SPORTSY THINGS



Seriously, there are a lot of Ronald Reagan-related sports photos.

Passing the ball to Gorbachev 
"But I can't dribble here, this is Nancy's favorite carpet."

The original ending to Rudy

They gave this jacket to Reagan in light of him not being allowed to play

Reagan gets a Lakers jersey from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, famous actor from films such as Airplane! and Game of Death, who also occasionally played a game of hoops.

The University of Southern California really thought it'd be the Gipper's size.

Shot from the infamous "Christmas Tree Ornament Hanging of 87'" fiasco

Ronald with the two Williams sisters. Reagan loved Tennis, even thought Infinite Jest was "non-put-down-able" because of the tennis bits. No joke.

In this moment, Mr. Reagan invents both the high dive and the "Shopping Cart" dance move.

This doesn't relate to sports, but the look of evil in that Bunny's cold, sullen eyes- the face of evil itself- is enough to warrant a spot on this blog. Chilling. Especially the cyanide eggs.

The Problem with Bronies




So, I'm feeling down today. I wake up and immediately feel like an aimless twenty something. Also, I'm sick, which even though makes my voice sound more like Leonard Cohen (which is a good thing), I don't enjoy the cat claws in the throat. The point of all this is that I should feel down. I should, right? And I was, until I watched this:

I understand that traditional masculinity is just a construct built out of a societal need to control gender roles for the production of- sorry, lost my train of thought among the words "postmodern" and "My Little Pony" being in the same sentence.

Sigh.

Look.
To any Bronies reading this:

I understand that you come from all walks of life, from college-educated liberal arts majors to military service personnel, to leaders of faith, to whomever else. I get it. I also get that you're into the show's writing, and you think episode 8 is a tellingly satirical critique on some heavy, philosophical issue.
I get it.

But-

A terrible joke created by 4Chan that morphed into an actual guilty pleasure has now been transformed into a monster of a fanbase.

It's not even about masculine roles, it's about adults liking this show. If I knew a woman who loved My Little Pony, I probably wouldn't date her. Probably. Not that she'd date me. I mean, maybe she'd like Lou Reed but I highly doubt it.

Anyway, I feel better about my life. Thanks Bronies.
