now that's funny.

There are easily as many conservative folks on this board as there are liberals, if not more, and I bet most of them woud be just as quick to distance themselves from your remarks.

I think these comments are better suited for ochre's forum.

I guess I'll have to break out my avatar from last season. Love heals all wounds.

Does that mean 7.5 of the RedsZone 10 are liberals?

Would that make one of them a moderate?

Re: any1 else tired of espn's political correctness

I'm tired of ESPN trying to create the story.

I'm tired of ESPN telling me what I should and shouldn't care about.

I'm tired of ESPN thinking people believe everything they say.

I'm tired of ESPN thinking their experts trump all other experts.

I'm tired of Barry Bonds being the featured act of ESPN every night. I don't think it's breaking news to tune in to ESPN News and see that Bonds went 0-2 with an IBB.

I'm tired of ESPN presenting itself as though they are the only game in town.

I'm tired of ESPN, and thus don't watch anything but the occasional ESPN News broadcast to watch the ticker at the bottom.

7.5 are liberal. The conservatives wanted no part in the duct taping of the 50/50 moderate. At least that's what Chip indicated.

Welcome to America in 2006. When in doubt, blame "the other team."

Good post Joseph. You're the one moderator in this thread that hasn't gotten off topic in order to ridicule someone. Tip o' the hat to ya'.

Personally, I haven't watched BBTN since Monday----that was when I woke up at about 5 AM and flipped on the TV. Gee, the bass fishing and deer hunting was over but BBTN was on. Luckily for me, Reds highlights came on about 3 minutes later, I watched them and then switched to CNBC for the business news.

What in the hell is the ten thing about anyway? If people wanna do inside jokes can't they go somewhere else and not clog up the board?

If you don't like it, don't read it.
