Would you sell your allegiance? This guy is selling his on eBay

LogGrad98 - Well said. You can't change what's inside. If you had to be paid to wear other teams colors, and cheer them on at bars that's
not changing the interior.

Everyone is lying if they woundn't do this for a big amount of money. Everyone has their price....

I love this from the auction site:

No need to apply: Buffalo Bills, Detroit Lions, Cincinnati Bengals - because you have also proven you could care less about winning.

LOL

As it stands the Bears are in the lead with a bid of $620

Isn't this basically what happens in politics.
Step 1 - No amount of money will sway me from doing whats right --- followed by an election won.
Step 2 - I don't believe in your cause.... but that is a lot of money toward my campaign fund, and I want to be re-elected so I can "make a difference".
Step 3 - Ok, ok... I will vote that way, yes, I remember you gave me all that money.
Step 4 - I've changed my mind..... I now feel differently about that issue ( to the public).... because of the money.
Step 5 - If you have money, and give it to me, I will vote however you want me to.
etc...

I think we have quite a few potential politicians in this group.

For the record, being a fan of a sports team is a great deal different than being a leader of men. Although I would sell out my allegiance to a sports team --- an act that would be of utterly no consequence to anyone including, in the long run, myself --- I would never, ever, sell out my fellow man, or my own principles and beliefs, for a buck.

I understand why you might resent those of us who said we would sell our allegiance to a sports team, and you might consider us fairweather, etc. But you are equating things which are not equal, and that's not completely fair.

I wouldn't do this unless it was over one million dollars.

I'd give up a toe for a Jazz championship...

Yeah I'd lose a ****ing toe, too.

I don't really care if people sell their allegiance to another team.

I just thought it was an interesting correlation, and they are based on the same principles.

Of course none of the politicians plan on or would ever think of selling out at first, it just seems to happen little by little. We've all seen politicians change after they've been in office for a while. I wonder how long it would take a sellout to another team to actually start liking that team? Just a though.
