    Judges who are already ideologically driven in one direction are bribed to decide the same way. /baronlogic

    What, you don't think they'll bite the hand that feeds them? You're awfully naive.

    BTW, you find the conservative criticism of the arena deal yet?

    Naive is believing those who take contributions and then vote on policies that favor contributors must have been "bribed."

    Not conducting Google searches for you, but it's also naive to believe some prominent conservatives aren't criticizing the deal.

    Yes, and how well would they do during those #Democraticprocesses if corporations weren't people?

    ESPN ombudsman had a tough time -- though he said it was fun -- with the crowd after the Jets lost.

    One of the examples ...
