butterflyAs y'all may know, I read fametracker.com sometimes. It can be amusing.
Anyway, they have some post in the Lance topic for the first time in... God, probably months.
All very... much on the laughing at him track. Anyway, I just thought I'd post to point out where they're ignoring actual, you know, facts.
So, yeah, already posted this but thought I'd see what y'all thought.
"Shockingly enough, Lance? Doesn't have $20 million. He doesn't have publishing rights, like JC or Justin.
That's why he made a deal with Kreiff and MirCorp to film a series. He was going to have sponsers and do endorsements. But the company kept pulling the "it'll take a little longer", "not quite ready yet", "the check is in the mail". And the Russians got sick of it.
Lance didn't have anything to do with that part of it. Lance was kinda busy working his ass off in Russia. All his classes were in Russian, so he had to learn Russian while he went along. He passed every test. He got the okay from NASA. He missed both the VMAs and the Challenge for the Children to keep training in Russia. He did zero-g flights with no problems.
The only reason that he isn't going is because the company that he trusted screwed him over. Not because of anything he did.
Anyway, no matter what happens, Lance is an astronaut to me. He did the training, he earned the title. Lance Bass inspired me to want to do something with my life."
You know, I rejected several other things to add to the end of that. But yeah. That's what I posted.
There's already a response, but I don't know if I even have the energy to read it. I've already cried twice this morning.

That response is perfect. Those cum-swallowers better watch out and watch what they're doing if they ever want future business deals. All they care about is their pockets and who's getting hurt in this? Lance. I hope that he'll find a better sponsor to deal with and when he does get to go into space and achieve his dreams and set a record, I hope he flashes them his finger and sneer in their face. And Krieff and his money-grubbing buttfuckers he calls associates better be careful or they will find themselves bankrupt and whoring themselves out for money.
