Fake news, huh?
Yes
No
It’s funny because I forgot I was dealing with people so naive about the real world that that they don’t know facts are relative and constantly spun in narratives. The political profession is full of fact spinners. And most of the “fact checking” sites are run By people that have an agenda or at least a biased worldview. But if you are naive about it, then you read things that conform with your political view without any scrutiny.
The illegals get to vote; so, maybe you should stick with the popular vote.
I love Pop talking about anything and everything, tbh... that's what makes America truly great...
No, fake news is making up stories or sensationalizing stories. Spinning facts is an old political game. Spinning facts is to tell them in a narrative that supports your point of view. An example of fact spinning would be the movie coming out Chappaquid . The facts are Kennedy picked up a women that wasn’t his wife, they got drunk, he drove into a lake, she drowned while he swam to safety and then waited hours to call the cops. But how you tell the story can determine if you think the guy was a criminal or negligent, or without fault.
Pop is smart enough to separate coaching from politics, I don't worry about that at all. I believe what he says is important. He has paid his dues in the military and is sharp as a tack. He works with guys who come from all sorts of backgrounds and has learned a lot from them. He can articulate his thoughts on complex issues better than most I've heard. I know he won't but I would love to see him take up politics after his coaching days. For those that don't agree with his politics, I say listen anyway. You wont hear better arguments or even discussions.
Pop jinxed the Spurs this season. They became bewitched when he denounced President Trump. 50-win season down tubes.
Yeah, *that's* what happened.
I believe the lens cap is still on the end of your telescope.![]()
Right wing logic, protect our rights! Unless of course it’s the first amendment right being used in a way we don’t like, then that
Pop has a right to his opinion! Freedom of Speech and First Amendment Rights! He as a military man has that right more than anyone to speak out on that corrupt traitor in the WH! Pop speaks the truth so I support his right to free speech!
Agree! Great Post!![]()
Actually both parties are that way. If you remember, leftist students are organizing to keep far right speakers out of public venues because they disagree with their views.
That said, If the Spurs or fans want Pop to stop talking, that’s not a first amendment issue. It is a first amendment issue if the government tries to stop you from speaking.
Freedom of speach. Talking about something having the liberty to vioce your opinion is every Americans right to do. Doing something in regards to an “action” then yes you are correct.
He can talk about it, but I don't like it. I prefer he stick with basketball. I would react just the same if it were any other president or political question. Just stick to basketball. I watch basketball for basketball, not politics.
Pop served 5 years in the Air Force playing with the U.S. Armed Forces Basketball Team. It's not like he was special forces or even a medic. He gets credit for serving, but its laughable when people talk about him like a military hero. I served 8 years in the army, and Pop gets way too much credit verses people who have served in the trenches.
