Fourth Quarter, You Say? Harris Campaign Posts ANOTHER Sports L With Doug Emhoff-Doc Rivers Ad

Posted • October 29, 2024: Hoo, boy. Democrats and the Harris-Walz campaign are really worried about how badly they are losing men. And it's not just older white men who they have driven away. Most polls indicate that their numbers are down with young men, black men, Latino men, basically any man who does not wear a dress. Maybe part of the problem is that the party has spent decades demonizing men and is now trying to berate those same men into voting for Kamala Harris (who hates them) and Tim Walz (who doesn't get them). Don't expect any self-reflection from the party on that front though. Instead, they are trying to win back men with cringeworthy 'White Dudes for Harris' ads and -- far worse but just as hilarious -- trying to pretend they can relate to men about sports.

Just yesterday, alleged former assistant coach Walz demonstrated (for the second time in two weeks) that he doesn't get men or football at all by recording a Twitch stream with AOC during Sunday afternoon NFL games and then claiming that AOC 'runs a pretty mean pick 6.' As if that wasn't bad enough, Harris's husband -- and famous nanny impregnator and girlfriend slapper -- Doug Emhoff decided that he wanted to get in on the 'sportsball' too and tweeted this ad with Harris surrogate and former NBA coach Glenn 'Doc' Rivers. -- Doug Emhoff @DouglasEmhoff: “Fourth quarter huddle with the legendary Doc Rivers. We need everyone on our team to show up for Kamala in this final stretch.” -- OK, this is a slight step up from the campaign's previous attempts to engage in sports-related content but to understand how big of a fail this was, you need to know a little about Rivers and Emhoff's choice of words in the tweet to say it's the 'fourth quarter.'

Rivers was an outstanding NBA player for 14 seasons and has been a successful head coach in the league since 1999. But to knowledgeable basketball fans, Rivers and the fourth quarter go together like bleach and ammonia. It never ends well and there is usually a lot of choking. "We love black men. Black men have to vote for us. Black men love basketball. Also here's hoping no black man knows WHO DOC RIVERS IS IN THE 4TH QUARTER." -- Rivers-coached teams have choked so often in the fourth quarter that it spawned the saying, 'Death, Taxes, and Doc Rivers Blowing Leads in the Fourth Quarter.' He's got a pretty awful record with blowing series leads in the playoffs too. Known clutch head coach doc rivers https://x.com/pitlessball/status/1850921955140026836 -- OOF. That is … NOT a good record. Even some Democrats knew this wasn't a great look. (…)
