I shouldn't be surprised...
Most white pro athletes are right of center...
Oh, before anybody names the exceptions I know the Bill Bradleys exist...

| 6. It's because when they get rich, they get cheap. They want to sit on their pile of dough |
|
and even though they wouldn't miss a few million in taxes, they get greedy and want to keep it ALL.
Bums.

His father was an NFL quarterback and has been a commercial pitchman in New Orleans ever since. Whatever his reasoning for being a republican, he isn't abandoning his working class roots.

Eli, Peyton, etc all were from New Orleans, yet all shunned LSU and went to other SEC schools. Motherfuckers.

| 5. A Strange Phenomenon... |

Many pro and college basketball coaches are Democrats while many pro and college football coaches are Republicans...

| 7. The problem with looking up to sports figures... |
|
is that they didn't get their fame and money through their intelligence or wisdom, but merely by being faster or stronger than their opponents. Once they obtain their money everyone looks up to them as role models and heroes, unfortunately they rarely really are.
Now before I get slammed with examples of intelligent, Democratic sports figures, I know they exist. The majority of professional sports players, like actors or singers, do not make good examples for our children to look up to.

| 13. And Heath Shular is a Democrat. |
|
So - we have one former Tennessee QB who's a Republican and another who is a Democrat.
It's a wash, if you ask me.
