Your thinly veiled bigotry is still just bigotry, despite hiding it behind a strawman

          Me: [unintelligible]

          Announcer: Speak into the mic [you buffoon]

          Me: AH! MIKE!

          Me: MICHAEL JORDAN… MIKE TYSON… MICHAEL PHELPS?

          Announcer: And that’s time! You were supposed to be naming baseball players, remember? Technically, you got two out of three, so I’m required to give you this ticket for a free hotdog.

              I don’t think “pink” and “hot pink” should count individually here.

              Or if they do, you missed the opportunity to just list all colors + “hot” infront of them lol.

              Still a passing grade regardless, so you get a hot gold star 🌟

                in my eyes they’re very different :D i don’t like pink, but hot pink is neat when used as an accent colour

                thank you thank you

      In total, sure. There’s enough (in)famous athletes between football, tennis, golf, racing, etc.

      Active athletes from one type of sport? No chance.
