I think the game should have stayed in Charlotte, but don't blame the liberals here, as both parties are to blame. Yes, the Liberals pushed a boycott, but only after the Conservatives pushed through horrific law that strips employees of basic rights, and then wrapped it in a BS story about bathrooms and protecting families.

The right passed a horrible law, and then the left pushed a boycott because of it, and now we're all suffering. Politicians ####### suck.

Tmac9wr. I appreciate your attempt at objectivity, but you have made two basic errors:
1. Liberals at all levels dashed to pass legislation prior to the recent election ... to feed the "Deplorables" campaign narrative. It was on purpose, to win with what used to work, not preserve "rights."
2. The process. Our process is that we elect those who represent us. City, County, State, Federal. We sort what is passed by courts and elections. Nowhere in our process does the "NC Double A" or the ACC have authority, except through usurpation. And just like elections, illegal usurpation has consequences.

Re: Liberals giving liberals free handouts


Dec 3, 2016, 2:43 PM

Fair enough, but let's not pretend that the Conservatives don't do similar things. They tried to block EVERY piece of legislation Obama tried to pass over the past 8 years. There was a conscious decision from the moment he was elected that the Republicans will go the complete opposite way of him. Chris Christie, as much as I despise him, was considered a traitor of sorts because he accepted federal funds and praised Obama for his help after Hurricane Sandy! Don't you find that to be a little insane?

I don't disagree about the NCAA overstepping their bounds...of course, they're allowed to do so, but I hate the "Boycott X if you disagree with them" attitude that our society has today. It's more prevalent with the left, but the right has its fair share of it too (just look at the Kelloggs/Breitbart situation, or when Campbell's dared to show a gay couple with their child in a commercial).

Re: Liberals giving liberals free handouts

And yet the call for a boycott, and the kneejerks afterward, of Charlotte is what has us where we are. What has it accomplished other than up the medias rating and cost the ACC a potwad of money (oh yeah, and keep those in Virgina and Clemson that would have gladly gone to Charlotte from doing so)? Apparently the the saying of counting to ten and thinking things through before acting when you're upset holds some truth.

I don't disagree with your point that what has happened is ridiculous...however, by mentioning the boycott's failure, you seem to suggest that this is a Liberal problem, when it's pretty clear both sides are equally as guilty.

Good exchange! I respect your view, but IMHO the left political activist far out number the right. The right has a hard time getting their guy's to fight back! I must correct one fact, though. Repubs are not guilty of obstructing Obama for the last 8 years. First two he had both houses of congress to help him ram his Alt - left, radical progressive agenda down our throats. After two years, however, the people had had enuf, and gave the GOP the majorities they now enjoy in Pres, Senate, House, governers & state houses. Obama was the best thing to happen to GOP since RR.

Re: Liberals giving liberals free handouts

Oof, you're certainly going to lose me here. To call Obama a radical left (dude, come on, calling people "alt-left" is literally taking the new idiotic liberal "alt-right" buzzword and putting it in a mirror) is a little nuts. The most radical thing he did was pass Obamacare, a flawed, but pretty widely-liked system. The Left is extremely flawed, condescending and infuriating, but the Right has been far too hard-headed and should admit that the last 8 years were actually a great thing for the country and that we're better off now than we were before Obama came into office. I didn't agree with everything he said or did, but Obama was a great president.

It's the ACC's fault. They should have found something closer to the original location. People have budgets and most were prepared to drive to Charlotte and drive back after the game. No way to do that going all the way to Orlando. Somewhere in Georgia would have worked. Now the ACC loses money and the teams both lose fan support. Sucky way to end the season.

ACC Begins Social Engineering

Dec 2, 2016, 8:34 PM

The ACC, having solved all the challenges of college athletics, now assumes the role of social engineering.

Where in their charter is the justification for endeavoring to control the affairs of legislatures and the citizens of a state?

Irregardless of where one might stand on such issues, surely the ACC and its athletic directors are not tasked nor empowered to deprive any state's people of the right to earn income. Your role is athletics. Please stay out of social engineering. Your attempts have cost thousands of people a great deal of money based on your broken commitments to Charlotte. Now the ACC is taking a bath financially.

ACC Championship Game--Total Joke!!!


Dec 2, 2016, 9:30 PM

Except that I hate for fans not to support the Tigers, I wish this game would be played in an empty stadium in Orlando! The ACC should have had the balls to tell the NCAA that they were not moving championship games out of NC--the NCAA could take a hike! They could have done this and the NCAA could not have stopped them--heck, the NCAA can't even decide whether to punish Swoffie's boys at UNC for lack of institutional control for 18 years, but it got Notre Dame for a rogue trainer doing players' homework. The NCAA is a total joke, and so are the college presidents who supported this crap ( pun intended ). I hope our CU President was and is smarter than playing the politically correct game with these ridiculous liberals because there is absolutely NO END to their foolishness!!!

Interesting that those in charge of ticket distribution initially required IPTAY members to have a minimum of 250 points to order 2 tickets; 500 points to order 4 tickets. These requirements were lowered later; ultimately all minimum points were eliminated. I have over 350 points. When I ordered the tickets, could only order 2; wanted 3. Was very frustrating to have to finagle an additional ticket from someone else to later learn I could have gotten 3 or more--now they are giving tickets away. Sheesh! They really missed the mark on ticket distribution for this game.

They've had very good crowds there compared to when the CG's were in Florida. The fact that Clemson & VT are in it again, you could guarantee that game was gonna be a sellout crowd had it been in Charlotte w/ both schools only a couple hours away.

As much as I don't want to see it b/c it means good # of our fans didn't make the trip, but I hope there are camera shots showing a half full or less stadium. Maybe the ACC will get it thru their heads that Florida CG games aren't going to work. If the game doesn't return to Charlotte soon, hope the ACC will switch to awarding the game to the team w/ highest ranking or best conference record. Only way I think the games will have worthwhile attendance outside of playing it in Charlotte.

With each team expecting a good good bowl or a spot in the National Championship playoff, many people have to decide when to spend their money. Charlotte would attract many more, but NC chose to create a problem where none was known to exist for politics. They reap what they sow.
