I can't explain exactly what gets me so fired up but this is infuriating. This shit has got to stop. If their argument is that their sponsors will pull support, then there is a response to that. Who are your sponsors? Lets have a talk with them about boycotts of their products.

We may not have been able to take down the country music radio stations and recording industry in 2003 but we sure as hell could get a message through to the United States Bridge Federation in 2007/2008.

I wrote the "Board" an email, attached below. Their email address is board@usbf.org.

The attorney for the Federation said that each participant signs a pledge similar to the one Olympians sign. After the contains a "no political statements" provision. The reason: Tommie Smith and John Carlos in the Mexico City Olympics.

It seems to me that the pledge is not really ambiguous, and this clearly breaches it.

Admittedly out of line at an awards ceremony, but, I mean look at them - - if you take in the whole scene, it's actually kind of a pro-Bush statement they're making.

Isn't the sign a simple statement of a fact much like, "We're wearing shoes." ?

“Funny, I am waiting for Brady to hold up a sign saying the same thing about Bush...”

Either way it would be inappropriate for Brady to do that and he would get punish rightly so by the NFL for doing so.
