Something to do with money, apparently.

Re: Air Force-Navy game canceled

They aren't canceled.

 

Nice try at getting around the politics rule.

 

How is this not a sports subject?

 

It is, but it is more about politics and it's pretty damn easy to see that.

It is absolutely ridiculous that we can't have a discussion of the real topic on this board, but that is where we are.

 

I know there's a separate thread for this, but was it canceled or postponed?
Bit of a linguistic pet peeve of mine.

 

All subterfuge to direct and sidetrack people away from the other big story of the day.

 

Why does Ted Cruz hate the flexbone?

 

It's going to be canceled if things aren't resolved by a certain time Thursday.

 

No doubt that it will be resolved once The ESPN brass start applying
pressure. Control college football and you control the world.

 

Actually, I believe it was slated to be a CBS national game on Saturday.

But it does hit home exactly who gets directly affected by this sort of silliness. Hint: it's not your congressman, regardless of party affiliation. It's mostly honest, non-partisan civil service people.

Is the post office still delivering? Or did that get shut down, too?

 

Doesn't matter.
The post office has been broken for 200 years.
