Serena Williams, Lionel Messi, and Lewis Hamilton are legends of their sport, but fans of the 2006 film Cars also believe Lightning McQueen is also up there as one of the GOATs. The debate began in a recent episode of The Stephen A. Smith Show where a viewer - Danny in Wisconsin - asked the host where McQueen's Piston Cup wins would rank him amongst the sporting GOATs. “When you think about the GOAT of sports… where do you rank a guy like Lightning McQueen with seven Piston Cups?” he asked. It's fair to say Smith had a strong opinion on this topic, where he brought in the achievements of another character from the film - Strip ‘The King’ Weathers. “I would tell you, he wouldn’t be the GOAT… When you talk about Strip ‘The King’ Weathers and Lightning McQueen, they’re both tied with seven Piston Cups. How can you be the GOAT if you’ve got something tied with you? Sorry, that ain’t going to work,” he argued. Smith then accused Danny of trying to “catch him” out with Strip’s equally impressive record of seven Piston cups, equal to McQueen's. “You didn’t think I knew about Cars, did you? You slept on a brother,” the host said. He continued: “Strip Weathers has seven Piston Cups. I am not about to sit and argue with a grown-ass man about the movie Cars… you should have brought me someone who didn’t have as many Piston Cups." To which Smith then asked why the Cars characters were the subject of the debate rather than Fast & Furious. Danny shot back, making the point that Cars is “real to little kids” – but Smith was prepared with a rebuttal. “You’re not a little kid! You’re 21. You would have a point if you were seven years old [and] calling me. What are you doing, wearing a diaper?” he screamed there off-road and then proceeded to hang up on Danny. The clip has since gone viral receiving a whopping 28.1m views, and 140,000 likes. Meanwhile, there has also recently been further debate where Cars fans are ranking the characters in terms of their achievements. Many argued that Lightning McQueen is the GOAT - he does have main character energy after all. @alexcolemann @benlikessports Jackson Storm get ready to leaen chinese buddy? However, not everyone agrees... One person said: "Strip Weathers won in 4 different eras. that’s all I’m gonna say." "Gotta be the King Strip Weathers ALL DAY," another person wrote. Someone else added: "Strip Weathers was the Messi of cars." "Strip weathers dominated in his own gen 2 era along with the gen 3off-road and gen 4 cars and he’s #2? The longevity over McQueen puts him at 1 in my book," a fourth person commented. Guess we'll all have to watch Cars again...

A gymgoer has hit back at "internet weirdos" after a targeted clip from TikTok's fitness influencer Joey Swoll. Swoll has made a name for himself online for candidly calling out what he considers poor gym etiquette. This includes the likes of recording in gyms, some influencers' entitled behaviour and equipment hogging. In Swoll's latest rant to his millions of followers, he responded to one gymgoer's complaint that a man essentially ruined her video. Nahtalie initially took to social media with a video claiming the man "rudely took the machine and went in my [video] frame." She went on to use a clown emoji, adding: "Like sir... You clearly saw me doing something." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter In response, Swoll said: "You don't get to selfishly hog equipment if you're super setting 2-3 other exercises while people are waiting and you don't get to tell people they can't be in 'your video space' if they're using a machine in your frame. And NOT everything needs to be posted on social media! Handle it like an adult and move on." He continued: "As if your video is more important than another member’s workout?" "It’s not. I’m sorry, you don’t own the gym. Not to mention, it’s not good gym etiquette to do three or four different exercises, super setting, and hog a machine." Nahtalie was seemingly unfazed by Swoll's comments as she posted a string of Instagram Stories hitting back at "weirdos" for criticising her clip. "Y’all need to do some breathing exercises and find a hobby," she wrote. "You only get one life, why are you choosing to be a cockroach on the internet when you can literally go outside and look at how beautiful our one life is." "Do better," she signed off, citing Swoll's slogan. Have your say in our news democracy. Click the upvote icon at the top of the page to help raise this article through the indy100 rankings.
