Earlier today we published a blog about Granny McTreason throwing the American flag on the ground, during the National anthem, to celebrate the first American to win the Boston Marathon wheelchair race in 26 years.
The BAA issued a weak sauce apology, saying that they’d be “reviewing our Awards protocol to ensure that this does not happen again,” because evidently they have to be taught not to throw the American flag on the ground.
But this rang hollow to a lot of people because the woman who did it should come forward and apologize herself. That wasn’t an accident, and it was likely done because either, a) the flag was blocking the John Hancock logo (which they probably pay good money for to be seen on TV), or b) nationalism is now a bad thing because Trump is President.
My money was on the latter, and it seems to be much more likely now that we know who Granny McTreason is. Meet Joanna Flaminio of Providence:
She was the President of the BAA from 2011 to 2017, and she rubs elbows with Bob Kraft and other high profile people.
Based on her Facebook posts it’s pretty clear what team she’s on:
That was all I really needed to see. She thinks Brett Kavanaugh should’ve apologized for being a sexual predator, even though it’s pretty common knowledge at this point that Christine Blasey-Ford got in front of Congress and lied her face off for the million dollar GoFundMe. This is the kind of person she is and how she thinks. And there is ZERO doubt in my mind that a person who thinks that due process and other American things like that aren’t important would be the same kind of person who would see the American flag as problematic, since it represents those values.
She’s a resister all the way:
And constantly posts left wing talking points on Facebook.
She seems to take great pride in getting on camera with the marathon winners every year, and an American flag would certainly take away the spotlight from her.
Joann Flaminio owes every American an explanation and apology, directly from her, for what she did today. She is the former President of this organization. Andy protocol they set up was done by her. Either she violated her own rules or banning the flag is one of her rules. She needs to answer.

What did she do that was wrong?
Stephanie Musalli or whatever the fuck your name is shut the fuck up You think this lady did a great service to our country by throwing the flag on the floor like a dumb Twatt she did this country a disservice you fuck stain get a grip no one cares what you think And no one in there right mind would do such a thing so why don’t you take your idiot friend and go sit on a 12 gauge you fucking seagull shit slurping moonbat
I know Joann Flaminio personally and you all can rest assured that she is a great American and a great Patriot. She has done more to serve her country than any of us could ever imagine but would never look for recognition for it. She made a misjudgment in the heat of the moment like any one of us would have. She was trying to get the participant recognized in a quick unscripted fashion and should never be demonized for that. We have all done things like this but are able to take them back because they are not on camera. She is more American than any of us trust me on that. I do not agree with her politics but that is not even close to being an issue here. She is a wonderful, caring and genuine individual who deserves a pass on this. If you have never made an unscripted mistake in your life then you can criticize. Joann you are awesome and thank you for your service to our country!!

Stephenie with all due respect, you are full of shit. Defend her all you want. Her essay to Judge Kavanaugh tells me all I need to know about her political leanings.
Joanne is mad Judge Kavanaugh looked at her and he wouldn’t give her the business end.
I gave Randall Guy thumbs down.
Response was “Thank You”
Nice
I sold that flag out for a few bucks tax free. I am your hero.
Go for a ride with ray borque after last call, Joanne. Do the world a favor
I was expecting to see her RIP the flag down and stop on it. But, I saw her take it out of a womans hands and place the flag behind her. I dont like her but I say we pick up the flag and go with no penalty. 1st Down
The Left are the one that make a smallittle thing and try to turn it into a giant fucking mess. Not us.
The right answer from joann: I am a miserable woman who HATES toxic masculinity, loving the flag represents toxic masculinity therefore I hate the flag. Even if we had a woman president, an all women congress and senate I still wouldn’t be happy because I wouldn’t be a victim anymore and what fun would that be?
Below, a douchy commentor has a point…
“Check Kid Rock’s shit and blood stained American flag underwear for your flag reverence program.”
Underwear, bathing suits, etc… Getting pissed & shit on… sat on…
Is out country so fragile it can be injured by a symbol of it touching the ground?
Whats bunch of winy snowflakes.
Her punishment should be to be forced to run the marathon. She’d have a fatal heart attack before the 1st half mile
That’s not a radical feminist.
Fox News finally got around to reporting something, but better late… They had an article on the flag being “crumpled” in the corner but nothing else.
Naturally, I linked the two blogs from TB in their comments section.
So our gal is Joanus Flamin’ahole. Given her association with BAA, she most certainly knows flag etiquette; she is NOT some brainless volunteer pulled in for a task (Sorry, volunteers, not disrespecting you, just furthering the supposition of one Nicole Bavis, who took offense at the tone of the original FB post showing the desecration). I consulted professor Google, and EVERY media outlet, save TBS, shows a simple pic of the flag on the floor, and they “don’t know how it got there.” Thank you, Uncle Turtleboy, for embedding the cellphone video clip. Thank you, Brendan Michael, for posting the moment on Facebook (where did the clip itself originate?). If the MSM were really interested, they would already have sought out video showing the actual act; there already were many outlets videoing, wouldn’t be that hard… if they REALLY wanted to do so. No less than her own spoken apology will do.
Actually, the marathon hasn’t been the same since the mid 1980’s. I can remember when anyone could run, and anyone and everyone did run. At the end, people rode their bikes along the route. Then it changed. They turned it into a professional sporting event, and if you didn’t qualify, you had to pay a large sum of money to one of their approved charities, I believe. A number of sponsors pulled out at that time.
All of this bitching over a piece of fabric……
OK Mo’Nique. Lets make it about money not fabric. My principle charitable giving has been to the Dana Farber BMJW for more than 25 years. IF this beast is not fired and publicly humiliated in giving an apology, wearing a MAGA hat no less, I’m pulling my financial support. Dana Farber and the BAA are tied at the hip. Lets see if money talks.
Fart horde. Cool story bro. Wrong use of “principle” mr. smarty-do-you-know-who-I-am-pants. Check Kid Rock’s shit and blood stained American flag underwear for your flag reverence program.
Dana Farber doesn’t need your money or care to meet your demands. I will stay tuned to your plan to personally set cancer research back by decades.
Baby shark doo doo doo doo
Baby shark doo doo doo doo
Baby shark.
Truths comment sucks. Doo doo doo doo. Truth sucks.
Someone, without knowing yet, stated “We know who she votes for” yesterday.
I replied, “She has the Bernie (moonbat) fly away hair.”
How right our assumptions were.
You can judge a liberal by it’s cover.
I just love it how she and other radicals are pushing to take our guns away from us, instead of insisting that we enforce existing gun laws. In almost every situation where you hear about someone, usually a gangbanger, being arrested for committing a violet crime, he is usually out on bail (I mean personal recognizance) for armed robbery, attempted murder, or some other crime involving a gun.
If they really wanted to solve the problem, we would have an automatic death sentence for anyone committing a crime with a gun.
As for the flag, what happened is a total disgrace, but this type of behavior is what the SJW’s have been supporting all along. To them, the flag is a symbol of fear and hate, because, fear and hate are what most SJW’s represent.
1st, they try to silence conservatives, labeling everything as hate speech (incites violence).
2nd, they come after our guns.
3rd, they take our banking rights:
Is there any truth that someone tossed the N bomb @ Adam Jones at the marathon? More on that, and news & weather after this little ditty…..
Joann sucks doo doo doo doo
Joann sucks doo doo doo doo
Joann sucks!
Hairy box doo doo doo doo
Hairy box!
Big fat ass doo doo doo doo
Little ditty. Bout cheese hog Joann. Used to run the BAA…now belongs in Afghanistan.
Oh yeah. Life goes on. Joann the cheese hog. Should be deported and gone…
The whole running and marathon culture is filled with left wing honks so I am sure she will be martyred. The media won’t spend 30 seconds reporting on this. Had it been a rainbow flag thrown aside by a conservative then it would be front page news for days. I wish next year someone would throw the Ethiopian flag on the ground as the men’s winners are awarded and see how much coverage that gets? Not that I have anything against Ethiopia but to show these assholes how other cultures feel about their flag and what it symbolizes. A pretty sad
statement on the current mindset of a great many in this country IMO.
Throw a rainbow flag down and stomp it in front of her while she worked up into a frothy, rabid state of wokeness during some pink stinkflap headgear assembly and then defend yourself vigorously from the predictable physical attack that she will launch at you.
Curbstomp if possible.
Dox her, post links to all her social media!

Bring on the turtle justice!!! Make it epic Uncle Turtleboy!
I will gladly take one for the team.
I’ll wrap myself in the flag, strap on my star-spangled dildo(ex large edition) and fuck her asshole dry……If you want me to. Just sayin.
Why didn’t she hand it to the guy behind her, or better yet drape it around the winner like the do with all the other winners?
Let’s beat these SJW’s at their own game.
Unless there she resigns her position we will protest at next years Boston Marathon dressed in our MAGA hats of course.
Your move BAA.
Klan hoods would really trigger these fucking libs. I’m in.
The ex CEO of the non profit I work for is banned from the property. Why is she still employed by the BAA if she’s the ex CEO?
Get over it. Ya bunch of twisted drama queens.
Isn’t there a big old hairy guy in a handicapped spot in front of Notre Dame in Paris you could pick on.
That was quite a retort
Did you come up with that in your own?
Are you her lesbian girlfriend from Tufts?
Please enlighten us
They should put her a dumb Twatt waffle old ass loony liberal fake ass Facebook feminists social justice warrior scab Face on the Rolling Stones like they did for that dune coon scumbag terrorist Just make sure you put the picture with the flag sitting on the ground to let everybody know how much of an anti-American tin hat wearing fucktard she is
Dindu loving bitch. RAPE HER!
Woah! That’s just a bit harsh, don’t you think? Let’s not get crazy here. Please seek psychological assistance.
She needs to be immediately removed from any position at the BAA. She is a disgrace
Marathons are the big sport of SJW and Libtards
They got bombed 6 years ago and now they throw the Flag on the ground like garbage. She is one big fat piece of shit.
Born and raised in Worcester. North High grad.
A simple “I fucked up, I’m sorry” would do, but this cunt and the current shits that run that org don’t think they owe anyone that. An antiseptic “We are going to review our awards protocols” is fucking stupid and is said by someone with a tin ear for how it sounds.
This stupid cunt is lucky that what she did is not against the law but just fucking ignorant.
Seriously FUCK the first amendment. Trump and the govt need to step in and FORCE this DUMPSTERSLUT to respect the flag or execute her!
If that is who I think it is she flings feces around, her own. That’s right, a feces flinger shit finger flag wringer.
Just watched the channel 7 news which said They didn’t know how the flag ended up on the ground
Channel 7 is the most biased and bullshit news channel in Boston
Go away you bunch of old whores, hog smokers and shitty reporters
Every time they bring up Trump which is quite often they have all these elaborate backgrounds and sound effects. What a shit channel that is blatantly biased
Channel 5 is even worse. On either Saturday or Sunday morning (could be more often) their president or editor, some limp dick lib, gives a two minute speech against President Trump and anything he said or did that week. It is disgusting but I tune in to watch Kelly Ann, the weekend weather girl….:::
I too am a HUGE fan of hot TV weather chicks!
News eye candy:
Weekday mornings:
Anchor: channel 25 “the wood”- getting older and married to a complete douchebag but I still wood.
Traffic girl: channel 7 Alaina pinto- after the tall blonde disappeared from 25 Alaina gets the knob.
Weather: channel 25 sheri spears the weather pixie, she’s a spinner that looks like she’s be dynamite in the sack.
Weekend:
Anchor: channel 7 amaka ubaka- somedays id think I’d like to try to take a ride on that, other days I think it would be like being with one of smollets attackers.
Weather girl: depends on the day, channel 5 kelly Ann is hot and has some breeding hips, but channel 7 Jackie layer is young and perty.
For you fanooks- randy price and the guy from channel 5 in the morning will toss your salad.
Generally I am not attracted to black chicks but I would plow the living shit out of Amaka Ubaka… for 30 seconds.
College police chief loses job over liking a Merry Christmas tweet and an illegal immigration control tweet
This fat shit openly bashed the President of the United States repeatedly as well as his supporters and she’s allowed to be president of the BAA
That makes perfect sense
Right???
Of course she’s from Rhode Island,what a complete worthless cunt. How many dicks did you suck to be President of the BAA you old skank
Fuckin A! First class job exposing this douche. Now to see if the BAA gets rid of her. Fucking unpatriotic pig.
the Boston Athletic Association is a 501 c 3 organization. It might be fun to find out how much they pay people like her.
Guidestar listed their Form 990 and Joann Flaminio was listed as the President/Governor.
2016: $0 (averaged 15 hours/week)
2015: $0 (averaged 15 hours/week)
2014: $0 (averaged 15 hours/week)
Contributions/grants were 5.6 to 8.3 million for those years. Looking at those forms, the BAA reported that a large chunk of expenses are to the various towns that this race effects.
It’s worth the free account to check out various non-profits. Check them all out. It helps my limited charitable donations go farther than ‘Save the Children’.
Looked like karma to me America only cares about Israel anyway. The flag got Jewed 40 years ago where have you been?
Are you really “Wwy?” Your misguided and mysterious musings are hateful, untrue, and not wanted. You should be thankful the TBS is a First Amendment supporter, thus allowing your rants to be posted, be we don’t have to like it, certainly don’t want it, and wish you’d take your jealous Jew gibes back into the dirty black hole whence you came. Or maybe you can enlighten us on the genesis of your hatred. In any case, it has nothing to do with respect for the symbol of YOUR OWN first amendment right.
Thank you for triggering me. You’re welcome for your success in doing so. Bye.
Fuck this cunt and no I’m not donating to this shitty ad filled website get fucked.
