Amen brother - they still let me in the game even if I am a trump supporter so she can do what she wants
Just from a human behavior perspective. Everyone here is united behind the GC and have unity which is beautiful. But as soon as you divide people, things become ugly and have weird undertones. It is very interesting how that works when you invoke an emotional response. Add in a little misinformation/disinformation and AI images and let people do that rest, I must admit is very interesting to watch. I believe the really smart people in positions of influence, control and power understand this the best. I am willing to bet some government agency is in charge of studying this at all levels of human interaction. The climate in politics is hotter than the temperature outside and I don't think that's how it should be.
When your point is operative irrespective of the photograph, the photograph is really moot. The same discussion will resurface and the photograph won't be anywhere around. In fact, the discussion has been visited innumerable times already.
For better or worse, Staley has more goodwill capital built up than probably all other head coaches at USC combined, and feels she can afford to do it, regardless of how any of us feel about it.
Beamer and any other coach expressing their political stance. Except maybe Spurrier when he was at USC.
Freedom is inextricably (sic) tied up with responsibility. The responsible plan of action is expressing your beliefs without demonizing any other candidates,

I'm certainly no expert in politics. And I would rather trust the opinion of someone with subject matter knowledge I respect, e.g., an historian, an economist, etc., not a celebrity.
Not that I don't respect Ms. Staley at all, for she is obviously an expert in her field, Whether or not I coincidentally support whoever she supports for office is irrelevant.

I believe that there are many worthy candidates out there, but none at the top of neither the Democratic nor the Republican parties,
There are 8 candidates for president on the ballot in SC. IMO, the only wasted vote is the one not cast.
Resoectfully disagree. A vote should be cast in favor of that candidate and their policies. I have never voted for someone just because i didnt want their opponent to win.
I wouldnt want the person that i voted for to think i was supporting them when it wasnt the case.
Not that most of them care anyway.
90 percent are just power seeking a$$holes.
a 30 year season ticket holder wasn't allowed in the Arizona Cardinals game last week for wearing a MAGA hat
He was forced to apologize for it, if I recall correctly. For wearing a news shirt, not even a candidates shirt.
So maybe not the best example.
