re: Middle Ground regarding EC and Popular Vote
Posted by IndependentVoter on 12/26/16 at 7:51 am
Sure, I'll go on record, I voted for Donald Trump. I'll also go on record as saying I'm sick of millions of Republican voters being rendered worthless in California and New York just because the Bay Area and NYC are overwhelmingly SJW Democrat strongholds and you all should be as well.
Long term ...
Middle Ground regarding EC and Popular Vote
Posted by IndependentVoter on 12/26/16 at 7:07 am
With all the recent discussion about whether we should still use the EC or switch to the Popular Vote (which I do not support, the entire country should get to decide who is president, not just the coasts), I started to think, why not just compromise and do a system in the middle.
The US could st...
re: How will NFL downturn impact subsidies?? Will Benson want more?
Posted by IndependentVoter on 12/5/16 at 9:06 pm
Like a lot of NFL fans I've been watching my team's games (Saints) and that's it. I watched one full Eagles game with a friend of mine at an Eagles bar during the Saints off week, but other than that outside of the Saints I have not watched the NFL at all. Haven't watched a single Sunday night game ...
re: LeBron James Refuses To Stay At NYC Trump Hotel
Posted by IndependentVoter on 12/5/16 at 8:53 pm
What irritates me about this is the need for attention. I don't care if they decide to stay at the Trump hotel or not, but why the need to bring attention to it? You're a professional basketball player, it's a business trip, just go to your non-Trump hotel and then go to the game. No need to make a ...
re: The Muslim bias in American society...
Posted by IndependentVoter on 12/4/16 at 1:05 am
Well to be honest while I'd love a Muslim response on this I still want to hear all responses.
We all know most Muslims would just give the typical "we're a religion of peace, we don't support terrorists, ISIS hijacks our religion for their own goals and doesn't represent us" BS that all the Imam...

Jcaz that's all fine and dandy, but if I was over in Saudi Arabia would I be allowed to put up my Christmas tree without my life being threatened? Would I be able to wear a cross around my neck in public? I think we both know the answer to those questions.
But we're supposed to believe that Isla...
re: The Muslim bias in American society...
Posted by IndependentVoter on 12/4/16 at 12:53 am
And as an addendum, when I hear Muslims here in the U.S. say they are afraid now that Trump is President, I say good. Maybe Muslims here in the U.S. need to live in fear for awhile, then they can understand how we feel when we see a group of Muslims talking to themselves, wondering if I'm about to b...

Posted by IndependentVoter on 12/4/16 at 12:46 am
I was just watching some news and of course with Christmas approaching we already have new examples this year of cities not being allowed to celebrate Christmas due to people of other religions (mostly Muslims) and Atheists being offended. I also saw an article about some Muslim woman who was the fi...

re: Prepare to cringe- Kaepernick defends Fidel Castro
Posted by IndependentVoter on 11/27/16 at 11:27 am
You know, I typically never hope for a player to get injured, even on a bitter rival team. With that said, Kaepernick is truly a player that I hate, and I hate every aspect of him.
The guy is literally everyone that is wrong about the U.S. If he were to suffer a career ending injury on the field ...
Is the recount the way Obama retains power?
Posted by IndependentVoter on 11/27/16 at 11:24 am
A lot of us have theorized that Obama is indeed power hungry and won't leave the White House willingly. Many have said he might induce some sort of conflict to suspend the election.
Could he still have something up his sleeve with this whole recount business? His staff could end up making up fake...

re: NFL: Should we have teams based outside the U.S.?
Posted by IndependentVoter on 11/21/16 at 10:00 am
As for the Mexico City altitude, I say deal with it. You could put them in the same division as Denver so that at least they would not have as much of an adjustment. NFL coaches and teams will develop a good way to deal with the altitude, whether it's getting to Mexico City early or getting there ju...
re: NFL: Should we have teams based outside the U.S.?
Posted by IndependentVoter on 11/21/16 at 9:56 am
Agreed, they even just mentioned on ESPN that the teams indicated the travel to Mexico City is much easier than it is to London. Mexico City and Toronto would not pose any real travel challenges like London would. There is a way around that though.
The London team could essentially have two bases...
NFL: Should we have teams based outside the U.S.?
Posted by IndependentVoter on 11/21/16 at 9:44 am
With the NFL having a game in Mexico City today we all know the NFL wants a team outside the U.S. The big question seems to be have simply become whether London or Mexico City gets a team first and which teams those will be.
Do you believe the NFL should go outside the U.S.? I would be okay with ...
re: 3 NBA Teams Refusing To Stay In Trump Hotels
Posted by IndependentVoter on 11/16/16 at 7:21 am
Good riddance NBA. I mean how dumb can you be, did they not see the NFL ratings slide after all the Kaepernick stuff started? I agree that the NFL ratings slide wasn't just about the kneeling stuff, but I think it had a huge part of it. And before this season everyone thought the NFL was the one lea...

Noonan yep same here. This lady I'm friends with, I've always known she's a liberal but she's just gone crazy since the election. I'm hopeful in a couple weeks they'll all start to calm down.

Really Costanza, it wasn't that long. It would take all of 2 - 3 minutes to read. Even though you didn't read it though my question was simple. Have you lost any friends over the election? Has this election changed whether or not you would become friends with someone on the opposite political spectr...
