Comedian admits he lied about 9/11 escape

[cjericho]

I was pretty stunned by this. Always liked him on The League and he's a great guest on podcasts, where I've heard him tell his 9/11 story a time or two. Pretty sure I heard him tell it on WTF.

Yeah, WTF was he thinking. What a jerkoff.

Christ almighty, I must say I didn't expect a thread about Brian ... I mean Kevin ... from The League to include a Clintons rip. Yet another square marked on my Yankeefan bingo card.

Back on topic, I was familiar with Rannazzisi's 9/11 story before and it smelled like bull**** from the start.

Semi-jack, I thought The League lost a few mph off its fastball in the season premiere. They're trying too hard to turn phrases -- Chalupa Batman is "porta-potty trained" -- and it is starting to feel forced.

It's been forced for a few seasons now.

Premiere was good. Andre-Meegan storyline was great.

The hell you say, you ****-sipping frittata!

I like the show a lot, but that's always been their weakest point (along with early-season Taco).

Leslie Bibb is my wife's friend's aunt, so I always like when she pops up.

I just think it's funny that some comedian I've never heard of has generated tons of outrage by lying about his 9/11 experience.

Is no one outraged that Hillary Clinton made up her own 9/11 story, staring her daughter? It's really kind of sick.

 

[BitterYoungMatador2]

Where was Bill Clinton's **** on 9-11? Bet the twin towers weren't the only thing going down that day *rim shot*

 

[YankeeFan]

Baron will appreciate this, to understand Clinton's 9/11 lies about where Chelsea was requires nuance:

But on closer inspection of both Clinton’s accounts, the truth is a little more nuanced.

He's forever unclean.

We don't need you to defend yourself, Brian. I want to know what Tall Guy thinks.

**** Morris? Really?

 

[YankeeFan]

**** Morris? Really?

Did you read the Today show interview?

Morris exaggerates what she said, but what she said wasn't true.

 

[JC]

Shouldn't there be a running Clinton thread for yankeefan?

 

[MisterCreosote]

Did you read the Today show interview?

Morris exaggerates what she said, but what she said wasn't true.

I read the part in the link. She said Chelsea was "close enough to hear the rumble" of the towers falling. Which, I'm guessing, was a pretty wide radius. She's also explicitly asked if Chelsea saw the smoke in person, and Hillary flat-out says, "No."

**** Morris is a buffoon under the best of circumstances, but goes full-blown DERP with anything involving the Clintons, especially Hillary. Let his fade into irrelevance be permanent.

YankeeFan's obsession with the Clintons? Yeah, I agree.

 

[BurnsWhenIPee]

Think I read somewhere that it was supposed to be a 1-season or 2-seasons show, but they extended it after it became so popular. It definitely has that feeling now.

If you look at an episode like "The Guest Bong" and then watch the first 2 episodes of this season, they are not even in the same galaxy quality-wise.

Needs more car analogy.

 

[Vombatus]

I'd like to see a NYPD or FDNY member jump on stage and beat his ass to a pulp. And then somehow escape without assault charges.

I saw on the guide late last night where his special was going to be showing on Comedy Central. Flipped by and they had replaced it with Ari Shaffir's special. I think it was on Shaffir's podcast that I first heard him tell his 9/11 story.
