2011 NFL SEASON CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY
It is finally here.
Conference Championship Sunday
I think this is one of the best Sundays
of football next to opening Sunday and the Super Bowl.
This is it.
This is the last game where
homefield advantage matters. For the 49ers and Patriots this is their final
home game of the season.
Are their fans going to go home
happy, or will they have to wait until the season starts in 2012? For the Ravens
and Giants, this could be their next to the last road trip they take before
heading to Indianapolis…
So… what seems to be the story
that we are going to look back on for the 2011 NFL Season?
KICKOFF TIMES ARE CENTRAL TIME
Baltimore Ravens at New England
Patriots, 2 PM CBS
New York Giants at San Francisco
49ers, 5:30 PM Fox

TURNS OUT THAT IOWA DID NOT END UP WITH A ROMNEY WIN…
If you
recall from the Iowa Caucus it
was reported that Romney won by eight votes.
Well…
through some double checking, it turns out that Rick Santorum won the Iowa
Caucus by 34 votes.

The standings
will be updated to reflect that change.
Here is
something interesting to consider… Republican led legislatures in the states
have been pushing for Voter ID Bills to combat the supposed epidemic of rampant
voter fraud that is taking place across the country.
By the
way, it’s not taking place. In 2007, the Justice Department released a study
from the last five years showing there
was scant evidence of organized voter fraud taking place. Even though the
article sites that from October 2002- September 2005, 95 cases were brought to the
government on charges of voter fraud. 70 of those cases resulted in a
conviction and of those convictions, 31 of those involved party or campaign workers.
The next highest number of convictions involved individual voters through a
list of problems; most were convicted due to being found to be ineligible to
vote.
The same
article pointed out that prosecutors in Wisconsin were unable to win a conviction
by a two-to-one margin.
Anyways…
So
Republicans want Voter ID Bills to combat this made up conspiracy that there is
rampant voter fraud out there…
Then why
can’t they conduct their own caucus without people raising questions about the
results?
