SPORTS NEWS! Kiprotich, Phelps Back to Prison


Stephen Kiprotich and fellow Olympian Michael Phelps will be heading back to prison in the aftermath of the recently concluded Olympics. The only difference besides being on different continents is that Kiprotich will be going back as a boss whereas, multi-gold medallist Michael Phelps will be caged-like a dolphin, if he isn’t already. Kip as he’s commonly known is rumoured to be the next awe-inspiring thing since Kylee Hodgson gave birth to twins-one black, one white in 2005.



Kiprotich, whose name I misspelt in an earlier post as Kiprotech(which sounds a lot cooler if you ask me) won a Gold Medal in the recently concluded Olympics. You probably already know that unless your name is Geoffrey Kazinda. What you and (I’m sure) Kiprotich don’t know is that the medal is actually 92.5% silver plated with 6g of gold. But that’s no reason to ruin the fun since the bronze medal is mainly copper with some tin and zinc and is worth about $3 on the market. I get bored pretty easy so when I woke up this morning to hear Kiprotich all over the stereo, I badly wanted to shut it off. It’s like when Call Me Maybe comes on, you all like OMG not again then seconds later you’re all like “I THREW A WISH IN THE WELL, DON’T ASK ME I’LL NEVER TELL…” It’s the kind of thing you just can’t get enough of.

Kiprotich jetted into the country early this morning to be met with thousands of happy toothless Sebei people. A Jessica Alepo and company entourage were also present to take credit for this great jambalaya. Well, they say life is a lot like toilet paper, you’re either on a roll or you’re taking crap from some asshole and boy, is Kiprotich on a roll! He was chauffeured to meet the (still) president of Uganda, M7. Despite missing work for more than a month, he has already been promoted to Deputy Superintendent at the prisons. Trust Ugandans to award shit on credit. That he can now effectively run after prisoners who attempt to escape. No worries; since it appears like everyone is all in a snit over this athlete. Me exclusive of course but I give the lad (is he really 23?) respect for staying calm amidst all the ululations. Have you taken time to ponder what would be happening if Golola Moses was the one receiving all this praise?

It would be like Word War 1 in those mandibles I tell you. Most of the media cameras and recorders would now be soaked in broken-English spit with all his claptrap.

As a contrast, Kiprotich is just grinning meaninglessly and flashing his ‘gold’ medal which makes me think that he’s probably suffering from mephobia. This is the fear of becoming so awesome that the human race can’t handle it and everyone dies.

Michael Phelps, on the other end was not going through the luxury of meeting with his Head of State Barrack Obama. Barrack is too busy pursuing a career in stand-up comedy and will not be bothered with the nitty-gritty of all this Olympic she-bang. But even if Barrack was willing to meet the fourteen time Olympic gold medallist, it would be utterly impossible since he (Phelps) was recaptured and incarcerated. Yes, caged like Black. I meant Bad Black but I just don’t think she deserves coolness that comes with being called Bad any more.

Following Phelps’ final Olympic event, he was recaptured by trainer Bob Bowman in a hoop net baited with an entire Dutch apple pie then he was tethered to the rudder of a container ship bound for St. Petersburg, guided down local waterways, and introduced back into his cage-which is a tank in SeaWorld’s 5,500 seat stadium. SeaWorld is some sort of amusement park or something in Orlando…I think. Phelps, like most Olympians has an odd (stupid) day job. His job entails chilling in this seven-million-gallon water tank where the schedule mainly involves performing six shows a day for marine park crowds every day of the week. The show is called “Michael, The Yankee Doodle Swim Team Captain”.

Sound like some balderdash kindergarten lullaby? Thought so…

This 6’4”, 200-pound aquatic mammal seemed “really excited to be back”. Michael “The Dolphin” Phelps lost a little of his gold lustre when he got playful upon entering his tank, breaching the water and making dolphin noises. This is what his trainer had to say;

“he just started swimming freestyle and backstroke, and only stopped to slide belly first onto the tank’s platform so he could be fed dozens of fried egg sandwiches much to the excitement of the crowd. He fell asleep at the surface of the water around midnight,” Bowman said.

 Audiences (from around the world) will expect Phelps’ trademark 35 flip turns in 35 seconds, nuzzling a child with his nose, and Bowman himself SURFING on Phelps’ back while the subservient sea creature swims backstroke.
Is it just me or are Americans really dim-witted, asinine motherfuckers? Put a pen on that, we’ll get back to it. Do you know how much this guy makes from all this crap?

A lot

The fee to enter SeaWorld ranges from $85/$75 depending on whether you’re an adult/a child to $150/$140-which means that they rake in $467,000 to $825,000 per show. I couldn’t find out how much Phelps’ cut is but if he does six shows and he’s the main attraction besides a couple of killer whales which just need a couple of kilograms of food per day, you do the math.

I love talking money. Now from the Olympics, one is awarded a $50,000 cash prize for winning a Gold Medal. In the United States, there is an additional $25,000 both of which attract a 33% tax. So don’t be so surprised to hear that Phelps is fed up all this cartoon money and has decided to retire.

Our Golden Boy, Kiprotich has already been awarded $50,000. The Vision Group has collected over $150,000 from the public. Their target is to raise I think $500,000. Old Boy Sevo has (I hear, mbu) given him $100,000. For a Prison Warden with a pay raise, I think he should be comfortable enough.
Someone quickly created a facebook page for public donations so the question on your mind might be, “have you contributed?”

No, I pay taxes.

Random question:
In 1972, David Obua won Uganda’s first ever Olympic Gold Medal. It was so awesome that in 1979, seven years later, it snowed in the Sahara Desert (yes, don’t argue). Would you consider it a coincidence if it snows again in 2019? I think not, you tell me.
Plus do you think this post is a little too long and contains too little bullshit? As in do you want more bullshit?

Holy Crap, how many questions were those?

STFU
