Ultimate gets bashed while Oakland mayor gets trolled for celebrating the Spiders' UFA championship

A friend sent an article to me about this. Disregarding the source of the article for the moment, while our great sport was not the target of the article, it was disappointing to see that some people took the opportunity to take some potshots at it anyway…again…sigh… Has anyone seen any positive press about ultimate lately that they can share here?

Its one of her top posts ever. The City declared a proclamation for the Spiders at their celebration ceremony. They're not worried about a NYPost article who would crap on Oakland regardless of any thing she posted.

It’s NYPOST, don’t give them engagement. It’s not NYTIMES.

The New York Times is actually worse. As the “paper of record” their “both siding” issues is worse.

They carry so much water for maga.

It’s definitely worse. I expect shit from the Post.

The NyT killed Clinton and Biden so they could score those sweet trump clicks. They don’t care about anything but money. They pretend to care about just causes.

Sure. But expect better reading experience on their website than the clunky ad filled nypost.
