None of this matters unless you can find clips of people suggesting male athletes also use their looks and sexuality to promote their sports in the same manner that's been done to Angel Reese. Nobody is saying it's wrong to find athletes attractive. But aint nobody telling LeBron to play shirtless to get more eyes on the game

You don’t think that men’s looks were used in concert to help promote the leagues they participate in? It’s obvious that it was. It’s why they use a players weight, height and physique in their overall analysis of them. Why do you think they call the NFL combine the underwear Olympics? So as far as Bron, LeBron doesn’t have to play shirtless, his skill set in relation to most peoples, on top of his build, is rare, the W is filled with players who are similar in skill to your regular everyday players so what are they going to do to standout?

Lol thread went as expected
You're talking about a completely different topic. Nobody is telling NFL players to wear tighter pants. Nobody is telling NBA players to wear shorter shorts to attract viewers. The way men's players looks are used is to evaluate their talent level. Not their ability to be marketable for how sexy somebody may find them
Reminds me of a thread on the IC where instead where folks argued back and forth about how simply saying "yeah that was foul" is a manipulation tactic and they refused to bow to it. Shit sounded stupid then and it's stupid now.

This who y’all defending…
PHOENIX -- Shaquille O'Neal will lose his special deputy's badge in Maricopa County because of language he used in a rap video that mocks former teammate Kobe Bryant.
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said the Phoenix Suns center's use of a racially derogatory word and other foul language left him no choice. Arpaio made Shaq a special deputy in 2006 and promoted him to colonel of his largely ceremonial posse later that year.

"I want his two badges back," Arpaio told The Associated Press on Tuesday. "Because if any one of my deputies did something like this, they're fired. I don't condone this type of racial conduct."
Shaq was seen in a video posted on the celebrity news and gossip Web site TMZ.com rapping that "Kobe couldn't do without me." O'Neal skewers the Lakers' star, with whom he won three straight NBA titles from 2000-2002 while with Los Angeles, for not being able to win a championship without him.
"I was freestyling. That's all. It was all done in fun. Nothing serious whatsoever," O'Neal told ESPN.com Monday. A call to the Suns on Tuesday seeking comment from O'Neal was referred to his public relations firm, which didn't immediately respond.
Arpaio, who describes himself as "America's Toughest Sheriff" and is best known for feeding jail inmates green bologna, clothing them in pink underwear, and making them work on chain gangs, said he didn't expect his actions would teach Shaq a lesson. But he hoped he learns that as a role model who wants to someday be a full-time sheriff, he needs to know his words matter.
"Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I don't think that either conduct should be out there publicly, even if media wasn't there," Arpaio said.
O'Neal previously served as a reserve officer with the Miami Beach Police Department while playing for the Miami Heat. He also volunteered with the Tempe Police Department after being traded to the Suns in February.
