1. and the boys..yes BOYS....got to sit thru a mind numbing

2 hour display of utter madness.....

The stink of trump will always be on that team.

[niyad]

2. "boys"??? As I understand from earlier posts, several of the team are

late 20's to early 40's. Why "boys"? Boors, maybe.

[Clouds Passing]

10. These types of males are not men. Man-childs for sure.

[MontanaMama]

15. Indeed. These aren't kids.

They’re grown ass men. Professional hockey players. Honestly, poster boys for submissives too.

[AZ8theist]

24. "Boys" is just a colloquial term used by hockey players when talking about themselves.

Listening to mic'd up players during games, you'll hear it quite often as in "C'mon, boys, let's go!" or other phrases encouraging better play.

Yes, these are adult men. Whether men or boys, nothing excuses the bad behaviour.

[niyad]

26. What they call each other is not the point here. How they are presented

outside the rink is. As is the reason for the way they are presented.

[Jack Valentino]

33. THEY certainly failed to "read the room" !

As far as I'm concerned, the WOMEN's hockey team were the real heroes!

The men's team? well, they also won their games---
but were a disappointment in the end, as we men often are...

[niyad]

35. I am not a fan of hockey (or any sport, actually), but I went to a college

that had a very good hockey program (several of my classmates ended up in the nhl), and that disgusting behaviour would not have been tolerated. Heck, even dwayne johnson in "The Tooth Fairy" was an ass, but not a misogynist ass.

[Jack Valentino]

36. What I read about our 'alleged' FBI director in their locker-room is-- well---

"pathetic"....


All a good argument for my position that
"REAL Men are DEMOCRATS!"

[niyad]

38. "disgusting", "abhorent", and totally in character for krazeeee-eyes.

You are quite correct!

[artemisia1]

42. Agree. A medalist jock at my university 40+ years ago stopped a rape in progress. There have always been boorish

men, but the that sh*te wouldn't have been tolerated by most I knew.

[ColoringFool]

41. "The Boys Of October"? "The Boys in the Band"? "The Backstreet Boys"? ...

"Beach Boys."

"Ask what the boys in the backroom will have."

"Pep Boys."

[Rebl2]

45. They call

our baseball team the boys in blue, because of course their uniforms are blue. The boys of summer.

[lame54]

30. And a half

[Mossfern]

4. I believe that it was in reference

to their emotional maturity age rather than their chronological age.

[Joinfortmill]

5. Agree.

[niyad]

7. While that may be true, the problem lies in the framing. Men are called

"boys" in many areas to excuse horrible behaviour, often sexual. We have all seen it. "boys will be boys". . One glaring example that I noticed years ago was about the murdering menendez brothers, referred to frequently as "boys", when they were, in fact, adults.

[UpInArms]

8. Boys at forty

Women at 12

[niyad]

9. EXACTLY!!!

[UpInArms]

12. Unless they are women

(as in the Womens team … then they are

GIRLS

[niyad]

13. EXACTLY!!!

[Farmer-Rick]

16. As my current coffee cup says

Behind every successful woman is a man.....who is totally surprised.

[niyad]

39. I have seen that one. Mine says, "I m only talking to my cat today".

[A-Schwarzenegger]

14. 6 words that sum it up. nt

[Hope22]

17. 12 is generous with this crowd..

Single digits not unheard of.

[moonbeam23]

18. That was

brilliantly put!!

[llmart]

32. Well, it is a proven fact that the female of our species matures faster than the male of the species.

Also, we're usually smarter and do better in school.

[Jack Valentino]

37. HEH!!!! Too True!

I am now a 63 year old man, and in some ways, I have never completely grown up....

[erpowers]

43. Unless

Unless you are black or a minority. We have seen multiple young black boys, like Tamir Rice, turned into men even though they were 12, 15, and under 18 years of age.

[UpInArms]

44. True

young black male children age rapidly … they go from boyhood at 3 months to grown manhood at the age of 11

[BidenRocks]

23. Like referring to Chump's grown (sons?)

Uday and Qusay as kids or diminutive young references.
None are kids. They are all grown and responsible for their actions.
They make it sound as if they would get sent to Juvey if arrested.
They all need to experience the REAL world!

[niyad]

25. EXACTLY!!! I believe coke jr is in his 40's. gums is only a few years younger.

[wendyb-NC]

6. Yes

[MerrilyMerrily]

19. Thanks for the link

The discussion of the subject there was interesting.

[orangecrush]

21. Most welcome

[Martin68]

20. The men...not so much.

[OneGrassRoot]

22. Isn't this a joke?

TDS posted after SOTU. I think it's a joke but I see people on various platforms trying to decipher what they mean. lolol

[Ping Tung]

27. Eternal boyhood is the dream of a depressing percentage of American males

Eternal boyhood is the dream of a depressing percentage of American males, and the locker room is the temple where they worship arrested development

Russell Baker

[usonian]

28. How long until he claims to have won the gold himself? Counting. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 ...

[DinahMoeHum]

29. Pathetic jock-sniffer

[Hassler]

31. None of these clowns better wear their gold

Medal when Chump is in the room or he will steal it and start wearing it.

[FakeNoose]

34. Some of the men's hockey players skipped the trip to Washington - Jake Guentzel for one

Jake Guentzel now plays with the Tampa Bay Lightning as his regular day job. But he spent 8 years playing for the Pittsburgh Penguins, helping the team win 2 Stanley Cups. The other players who skipped the White House visit were Brock Nelson, Kyle Connor, Jackson LaCombe and Jake Oettinger.

[Historic NY]

40. Shows how stupid that they were cowed into going to the SOU

they should have got out of dodge.
