Default World Series viewers: HILARIOUSLY biased poll over on ESPN...

ESPN

The poll is on the right side, down a bit. After you vote a map of the U.S. will come up. This is where things get funny.

The question is:

"Was Kenny Rogers cheating?"

Every single state, AND the international vote is solid blue (for "Yes"). For example, California is 65% "Yes" 35% "No". Texas is 57% "Yes" 43% "No". New York is 68% "Yes" 32% "No". And 16,400 international votes say 57% "Yes" 43% "No."

Then we get to the single exception: Michigan. Which is, by no coincidence, where the Detroit Tigers call home. And Kenny Rogers plays for the Tigers. Michigan is bright red, surrounded by a sea of blue...18,000 Michigan voters say 22% "Yes" 78% "No".

I'm sorry, I find this to be absolutely hilarious. This proves that most fans absolutely can't be unbiased when it comes to their team. The same goes for politics, etc. I just find it amusing.

If you can lie a little bit.

If you can lie a little bit
You can lie a little bit more
Once you get away with it
It comes a little easier than it did before.

No hard feelings, no harm done
It’s just time that I move on
Though we’ve only just begun
To see the signs of things to come
It’s just a little lie to get in your way.

If you can lie …

I though he was an old country and western singer. He never cheats.

No relation to that Kenny Rogers.
