In this bit6 moments
  • 12:03Tim jokes that the Long Island Lizards lacrosse team is so embarrassing that admitting your son plays for them is worse than saying he overdosed on heroin.
  • 12:55Guest notes that unlike football or basketball, professional lacrosse offers virtually no career prospects, so college was just a means to an elite education like Harvard.
  • 13:11Tim asks directly whether the Harvard lacrosse team had closeted gay activity going on.
  • 14:07Guest describes younger team members having wild nights with group sex activities and rumors they were engaging with each other sexually.
  • 14:36Tim observes that this behavior went unchallenged because the timeline of the world had progressed far enough that nobody attacked them for it.
  • 15:13Nobody on the team ever confronted them about the rumors; they were left alone and bragged about sleeping with girls while omitting the rest.
