God I hope they paid $20 million to fire Willie Taggert, just to hire Deion.

I'm surprised polls still exist after 2016.  People aren't even honest when it's anonymous anymore.
So you not only speak for Buckeye Fans it's people in General.Because our less evolved collective cognitive abilities could never see the obvious.

I'm thinking Jimbo left the cupboards fairly bare.Some one on another board pointed out Charlie Weiss made off with well over 25 million from his CFB forays

I used to be peripherally involved in polling (not political).  Our "experts" at times would throw in a "gimme question", something very obvious like "Would you rather be paid $50 or $5 for completing this poll?"  We'd consistently see 5-10% vote $5.

A lot of people don't listen to the question, or hear the question correctly, or respond randomly, it's near 10% in every poll taken I surmise.

A lot of that has to do with the purpose of the poll in question. As I have come to find out, most polls proclaim to sample the public on a particular issue to reflect public opinion. However, depending upon the way they frame the questions and the method they use to gather responses, it really has become more of a tool to shape public perception. It's like the old adage; Statistics are for liars and only liars use statistics. That tends to reflect the use of polls these days.

Are you going to conduct a poll?

You are trying to reason with a guy who wears a bright orange clown wig to football games.

Why?

My wife and I drive from Tulsa to visit her mother in Santa Fe twice a year.  My wife has significant food limitations, so we stop to eat where it is fas, she likes it, and she won't be allergic to it.  That is usually Subway.  Which is OK.

There are a lot of better sandwich shop chains than Subway, but they typically are not located right off of I-40 in the Texas panhandle.
Subway unsettles me because among the fast food places, it strikes me as the most blatantly food product rather than food.

Granted, I used to eat it a good bit, and would again on the right road trip.

I ate Subway pretty regularly in college and post-college because it was cheap.  But I agree, it's sort of the least "food-like" of all of the fast food options.

These days if I want a sandwich I stick to the local sandwich shops.  There's one that has a duck pastrami sandwich that is so unbelievably good, I find myself craving it.

I worked at Subway in high school. It's always heard the old adage "if you work in fast food you'll never eat there again once you see how things are made", but I did not find that true of Subway. Everything was pretty much on the up and up.

I never should have thrown away that "Sandwich Artist" uniform shirt lol

I worked at a Brueggers Bagels in high school.

I still can't stomach the smell of cream cheese anymore.  Not due to the cleanliness, just you can't have cream cheese in your face for 30 hours a week and not have it start to burn your nostrils

The wife and I will snag a Subway when traveling if we're thinking about a picnic somewhere pretty, like a National Park.  We get two around 11 AM or so, whenever we pass a shop.  Instant picnic.

I don't care for their bread really, but it's OK.

Maybe we're getting spoiled and have forgot the hard lessons our parents/grandparents learned.Subway isn't bad at all IMO.As are PennStation and Jersey Mike's - I LOVE good Deli sammiches.Used to be an old world deli around the corner growing up they had smoked/cured cheeses & meats hanging everywhere.Pickled everything sitting in big ceramic pots with plastic lids.They made a submarine sandwich called a "Poor Boy" on fresh baked French Rolls,.4 different types of sliced meats,2 cheeses some unbelievable Italian Vinegarette,sprinkled with chopped Greek olives.It was like a trip thru Europe - something from all those places.If I could order a last meal it would be as many of those as I could cram past my yap

Yeah, you're inserting 'grrr' or 'boo-hoo' into this where there is no need.  There was a massive, unprecedented disconnect between the huge election polling data and the results.  


It happened and it's noteworthy, no matter what side you're on.
