OT - Engler Claims Nassar Survivors enjoying "spotlight"
I had not seen this on the board (looked a bit) and the story from Metro Times now picked up by the national media. Apparently comments made to Detroit News editorial board over the weekend from Engler indicated:
You’ve got people, they are hanging on and this has been … there are a lot of people who are touched by this, survivors who haven’t been in the spotlight,” Engler told The News. “In some ways, they have been able to deal with this better than the ones who’ve been in the spotlight who are still enjoying that moment at times, you know, the awards and recognition.”
I thought Sparty couldn't go lower. I was wrong.

Cats and dogs, living together, MASS HYSTERIA!

Yes it’s true, this man has no dick

Almost double posted the same response

Anyone got any ideas how to bring our disgust to bear in the most powerful way possible against this dinosaur?

Like I said on Twitter - to paraphrase someone, "Michigan State, tear down this asshole."
January 15th, 2019 at 6:07 PM ^
How can people -- especially ones who have gotten to a position that requires intelligence and skill -- be so fu**ing stupid??
January 15th, 2019 at 6:13 PM ^
One of the sad things to learn as we age is that there is a depressingly infrequent correlation between native intelligence and moral character.
January 15th, 2019 at 6:54 PM ^
But. . . the fact that the people of the great state of Michigan elected this guy twice? Terrifying. You don't have to be that intelligent to have some idea a comment like that is going to bring widespread condemnation.
January 15th, 2019 at 8:39 PM ^
He was elected 3 times as governor. I was here for the last term of his.
January 16th, 2019 at 12:24 AM ^
Exactly right. Engler upset Jim Blanchard in an election that nobody thought Engler could win; then he whipped Howard Wolpe in what everybody thought was the worst beating that any Michigan Democrat could take, and the worst campaign any Democrat could run (61%-39%)... until Fieger came along to get an even worse embarrassment (62%-38%).

What are your favorite Nazi marching songs 1.8? How do you rate The Arnold's taste in Nazi marching songs and ass grabbing?
January 16th, 2019 at 12:23 AM ^
As someone whose withering disdain for Engler spans even bigger than Engler's waistline....
a) he wasn't nearly this explicitly awful as governor compared to his tenure at MSU
b) he ran against complete fucking idiots in 1994 and 1998.
January 15th, 2019 at 6:51 PM ^
Well he is a Sparty.
January 15th, 2019 at 6:07 PM ^
He should really STFU, but just can't help himself. What a vile excuse for a human being.
January 15th, 2019 at 6:07 PM ^
What's the difference between Engler and a bag of shit?
The bag....
January 15th, 2019 at 6:11 PM ^
"Let me see - what asinine, idiotic thing can I say to offend those victims today..."
January 15th, 2019 at 6:11 PM ^
Absolutely disgusting. Unfortunately I can’t say it is unexpected. He and the rest of the AD continue to rub salt in the survivors wounds. No one at MSU has a spine.
January 15th, 2019 at 6:13 PM ^
Can this fat fuck die of a stroke already?
January 15th, 2019 at 7:30 PM ^
Exactly
January 15th, 2019 at 6:19 PM ^
What a piece of shit.
January 15th, 2019 at 6:20 PM ^
Was going to post this as well, what an ***hole.
January 15th, 2019 at 6:24 PM ^
Really, the student body of MSU should rise up and get rid of this guy. They can if they care.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:31 PM ^
You are giving a lot a credit to the student bady
January 15th, 2019 at 6:39 PM ^
Engler is a practicing idiot.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:31 PM ^
I'd say he's done practicing. It's now game time for Johnny.
January 15th, 2019 at 6:41 PM ^
How does this guy still have a job?
January 15th, 2019 at 6:47 PM ^
It's weird to see who haven't followed this situation that closely be surprised he's still the interim president. He's been saying crazy shit for a year now and nobody at MSU who can do anything about it cares. That school is a tire fire and they should be ashamed.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:35 PM ^
Exactly. He would been fired At Least (!) after his second comment. What is he on - eight stupid comments? Is he trying to get fired and everyone is agreeing with him?
January 15th, 2019 at 7:35 PM ^
edit - double post
January 15th, 2019 at 6:49 PM ^
"the awards and recognition" of being raped?

I hadn’t seen this when I used the word Hutt below.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:05 PM ^
Who wore it best?
FUPA
Engler or Christie?? VOTE BELOW
January 15th, 2019 at 7:34 PM ^
That was a new one for me.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:18 PM ^
Friend of mine worked as a digital retoucher for a Lansing-area printer when Engler was governor. This printer had the job of printing Engler's Christmas cards each year, and of course the card featured photos of Engler and his family.
Each year, this guy's job was to digitally remove enough poundage from Engler to make him look "slimmer." He said it got progressively more difficult as the years went by.
January 15th, 2019 at 8:33 PM ^
Nice gunt!
January 15th, 2019 at 8:55 PM ^
Very deceiving photo. The man seated to his left is alarmingly tiny.
January 15th, 2019 at 9:59 PM ^
you know engler was looking at him out of the side of his eyes and thinking 'with cheese, or without...?'
January 15th, 2019 at 6:58 PM ^
Politics aside Engler is a creepy no chin draft dodging environment destroying hutt.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:01 PM ^
Yikes.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:08 PM ^
He is sitting his fat ignorant ass next to the lowest life forms. Embarrassing that he once led our great state.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:12 PM ^
How does he still have a job.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:22 PM ^
That is fucking disgusting! Wanting death for another human being is usually an awful thing, but I will clap in celebration the day that man leaves the Earth.
January 15th, 2019 at 10:53 PM ^
Going for a little space ride is he?
January 15th, 2019 at 7:24 PM ^
There are some people you just want to have the chance to be in a room alone with for 5 minutes. He really seems to be one of them.
Fast edit: apologies if this is not needed but I understand that is sort of an odd thing to state considering the story this is truly about. I obviously just mean I'd like to kick the ever living shit out of some people.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:26 PM ^
I used to think that MSU hired Engler and told him to say stupid things so they could fire him an appear to be tough on the issue. I no longer think that.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:28 PM ^
I wish nothing but misery for this scumbag.
January 15th, 2019 at 7:29 PM ^
How are the students there not protesting this guy's removal?
January 15th, 2019 at 7:33 PM ^
WT fuck
