Another one bites the dust

Any major institution or corporation in Australia is heavily into Narrative, I’d say more so there than here as the Australians have always been naive and embrace things wholeheartedly, no matter how BS those things are. There’s a quite sickening recent clip by the Geelong FC CEO who had two lady footballers beside him – apparently the club has been accepted into the Big Comp in 2018. I say well done to the girls and hope they enjoy it. However, he couldn’t stop there, this CEO, could he? He had to go on with this BS about how they were going to integrate the men’s and women’s teams and fight for diversity and equality and so on. Even the girls looked at him strangely – how on earth are you going to integrate women into men’s teams? The girls would be concussed in minutes. We’re talking 6’4″ men of 17 stone crashing into 5’6″ girls of 9 stone and taking them out. But of course, it was the words which counted, the intent, wasn’t it? Even he, the prat, realized they were hollow words, which then tailed away into silence. As for that female CEO at Hawthorn – does night follow day or wot? Why on earth would a previously excellently run club with three recent back-to-back premierships, whose Chief Exec has retired, replace him with some Narrative fed young female of no pedigree? Might as well run this one here too – that sacked VP in America: http://ift.tt/2kmfnq7 ...
