Gun to Your Head
Genie shows up and says you have to pick one. No hedging. No options. No details other than the choices given.

Re: Gun to Your Head
Easy choice. Kamala wins, Mets lose.
Re: Gun to Your Head
We could always win another World Series, but there may never be another election if he wins.

Re: Gun to Your Head
Not a close call. I can survive the Mets losing. Not so sure I can survive losing my country.
Even duct tape can't fix stupid. But it can sure muffle the sound.
Re: Gun to Your Head
The 2024 Mets have already vastly exceeded my expectations. We'll come back next year and win in 2025 while K is prez.

Re: Gun to Your Head
I'm there too.
I guess part of this is growing up. More of this is the state of the country. But I think childhood me would be very surprised I'd pick a presidential election over the Mets winning the World Series.

If Roy Cohn or some other anti-American menace was running in 1984, I might have been fool enough to put the Mets first, but I'd like to believe my Dad would be all, "Some other time, Son."

Re: Gun to Your Head
I recall starting a similar poll four years ago* but couldn't find it.
* It was obviously more than four years ago, because by October 2020 we knew the Mets weren't going to win the World Series. It was probably around spring training of 2020, or earlier.

Re: Gun to Your Head
I'm certain that the motherfuckers who voted for the first option aren't choosing the Mets over Kamala. For them, the choice is even easier. They'd prefer that Hitler wins next month.
Re: Gun to Your Head
Easy peasy. Kamala.
Re: Gun to Your Head
If the Dodgers sweeping the next three games could mean
a Kamala landslide -- taking all fifty states and finally saying
hasta la vista to the orange blowbag -- put me down in 2024.

Re: Gun to Your Head
Yup.
When did the choices get so hard
With so much more at stake
Life gets mighty precious
When there's less of it to waste

Actually, I think at least one of the folks who picked the first option may actually be real CPF-ers.
I don't know who for sure, but that would be their story to tell.

Not sure? Oh c'mon. I could easily name you three forum members who are rooting for both the Mets and Hitler to win.MFS62 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 20, 2024 10:48 amWhat are Rusckies doing in a baseball forum, anyhow?Lefty Specialist wrote: ↑Wed Oct 16, 2024 1:10 pmRussian trolls.batmagadanleadoff wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2024 6:10 pm I'm certain that the motherfuckers who voted for the first option aren't choosing the Mets over Kamala.
