Sports - A Safe Space for Conservatives
« on: September 02, 2017, 10:33:26 AM »
So says the Washington Post.

I'm one of the people here who think team sports are a waste of time and that people who get into them to the point of obsession are a bit off. But seriously? A safe space? For conservatives? Have these knuckleheads looked into the demographics of the Oakland Raiders fanbase?

The MAINSTREAM media does it again.

I never knew that the sportzing ball fans were conservative. All the sportzing ball crazy people I know are a mixed bag of various politics. Most the time I don't know their politics because they don't argue about that. They're too busy fighting over the sportzing ball teams. Which, IMHO, can get even scarier than people fighting over regular politics.  :O

Did they ask Steve Scalise for his perspective?
