Just do sports. It gets old when some newspaper guy has a sports forum then graces us with his political savy. You are a liberal. We get it. Just stick to sports. We come here to get away from the basic numbing liberal garbage that shows up on the front page of the paper and the newsrooms. I don’t read your paper, other than for sports and don’t watch local news. Keep stating your personal opinions on politics and I won’t read the sports. Or I might still go online, but I won’t pay for it.

It gets old when guys like yourself take advantage of your audience. You are not making the world better, you hare just expressing your political opinion. I could care less if Rush or Jane Fonda owned a team. I don’t like her but why would I have a problem with her owning a pro team?????
