You must be immensely disappointed! Go to a college football game and tell someone really into a specific team just how much their team sucks. It's so taboo! You'll be shocked by how much they try to sensor your ideas that go against their favorite football team.
- jacobwilliamroy 9y agoFootball fanaticism is disappointing. Without criticism from spectators or coaches, football teams would have a very hard time improving their game. It's counter-productive to silence football critics. Yes, censorship happens at football games; it does not follow that censorship ought to happen at public speaking events.
- jamescostian 9y agoLooking back at my comment, it was quite snarky. I appologize. And your response is definitely a good point. I personally am fine with the current state of affairs when it comes to football fans, and I presumed that you were as well, but that you were only against what happened in this article due to your own personal political beliefs. You calmly demonstrated that my presumption was incorrect. Thank you for being an excellent, cool and collected arguer, and I'm sorry I was so tribalistic.
