    I'm surprised the split of political donations isn't more even in 2020. Large companies often donate to both parties to win favors no matter who wins and I feel very confident that both of these candidates would have no problem handing out favors.

    I also think it's crazy that anyone is surprised that the majority of billionaire owners of sports franchises are conservatives. But, any owner of a business would have to be an idiot to piss off his key employee's/partners and some potential customers. Even if they hate it, most of these owners will continue to appear as socially liberal as needed.

    Aw, thanks!

    You should really brush up on your debate and listening skills if you ever want to have a productive discussion in your life, though.

    Also, is that Gerald Green in your icon?

    You assume I am trying to engage in a debate with you. Also you assume anything you say matters to me. And yes it is Gerald Green.

    Well then why are you even here? What are you hoping to accomplish with each of your replies here? Are you just a troll?

    You can't concern yourself with the political affiliations of billionaires. So many compromises have to be made to get to that station in life. I have many other reasons to dislike Tillman...

    Gordon Hayward suddenly put the Rockets #1 on his list of places he wants to sign with.

    Tilman attempting some pretty bad and transparent PR to try to move the conversation away from his incompetence as an owner.

    Amazing that this country and many of you automatically stereotype anyone who isn’t a Democrat as a racist cartoon character. I say this as someone who does not like Orange Leader and is more than happy to see him hit the road in January. And f@ck Tilman regardless of his political leanings.
