And here's why.
If Alabama wins, we are going to have to deal with fradulent NCG for the rest of our lives. All 1 loss SEC teams will play for the title regardless if they win their own conference or not. Given the weakness of the SEC East and really no good teams outside of Bama and LSU, we will always have at least 2 1 loss or less SEC teams. If LSU wins, we'll never see a rematch ever again(thank god). If Bama wins, it'll just exacerbate the already irrational notion that somehow the SEC is the best conference(they aren't).
Just my 2 cents, Go Tigers!

And by root I mean boycott any company for a year that sponsors the NCG. Don't bet on the game, don't click on any links discussing the game, and don't watch the game.

Shouldn't I be able to decide how I wish regarding this game?

Agreed. I'm tagging the words boycott to everything I discuss on the game. Negative discussion is allowed, book it!ernest_t_bass;1005441 wrote:You're discussing it now.

Any press is good, except when you are the mercy of advertisers. Advertisers avoid controversy at all costs especially if they feel their product is going to disenfranchise a lot of consumers by attaching them to fraud.pnhasbeen;1005471 wrote:Any press is good press.

I never said don't post about it. Don't buy any products that are sponsored(I will find a list), don't watch the game, and don't click on any ESPN/CBS/etc links discussing the game either.ernest_t_bass;1005474 wrote:LOL...

Advertisers aren't going to stay away from the second biggest football game of the year.

I'm not going to repost it, but if you think less people watching the game is not going to affect advertisers, then you probably don't have a job with a salary. You may even be a 'web developer'.pnhasbeen;1005496 wrote:Advertisers aren't going to stay away from the second biggest football game of the year.

If you're using AllState you are probably paying too much anyway. Go to Geico, they are able to offer much more competitive rates because they have less overhead expenses. Plus, do you really want to support an insurance company who supports the fraudulent BCS system? Didn't think so.WebFire;1005514 wrote:****, now I have to cancel my insurance.
