Should I support Ducks or Kings?
I live in LA and am getting into hockey. I love the game, but I do not know which team should be my favorite. How do I choose? I live in LA so I could support the Kings, but they generally play badly and don't really appeal to me, and while I don't live in Anaheim, I like the Ducks, their playing style, and team members. Are there any other teams I could consider rooting for?
Do you think the King of Thailand is on life support?
Yes
Would the Kings XI Punjab get support in a stadium in Indore this season as they now have big names like Gayle, Yuvraj, Ashwin, and KL Rahul?
Yuvraj and Gayle are known for attracting fans to the stadium. Even though their hitting abilities are on not the same as the past, they will surely attract the fans atleast for the initial matches. As the tournament progresses, the viewership will depend on the brand of the cricket franchise is playing,the importance of the match, and with whom match is against. Moreover, KXIP has a good tram this season. So they will definitely attract fans.
Why do people still support CSK (Chennai Super Kings) even after they were caught in a fixing scandal?
More than just a team, Chennai Super Kings is a brigade. And now that they are finally back, there doesn’t seem to be any reduction in the gigantic fanbase of this squad.First of all, Chennai Super Kings were never allegated for the spot fixing, their owners were. And for that they have done penance for two long years. The team itself hadn’t done anything wrong.There are 8 teams competing for the ultimate glory but Chennai Super Kings is different because of many factors and one of them is MS Dhoni.Now, let’s just all agree that everyone loves Dhoni, your favourite could be Kohli or Rohit but still you admire Dhoni because he deserves our love and admiration.Won the T20 world cup, ODI world cup, 2 times IPL champion and surprises us every time with his uncanny batting. 36 years old and is still amongst the best finishers in the world. Plus every other team had a number of captains leading them from the inaugural season but Chennai always has one—MS Dhoni.Plus, they have Raina, DJ Bravo, Shane Watson, Rayudu—the most consistent performers in the history of IPL. What’s there not to like??CSK is the most consistent team throughout the IPL history, they always deliver the best. Facts speaks for themselves, making a comeback after two years and still topping the points table.The two year gap made us love them even more and now that they are back, we are in for a treat. We love the yellow brigade and the way they play, we are whistlepodu forever, period.IF you want any information regarding CSK and the ongoing IPL 2018, check out: Today Match Prediction IPL 2018-Toss and Match Winner Astrology| IPL live Updates and Match Prediction
Why does Indore not support the Kings XI Punjab in the IPL even though it is their home ground?
KXIP’s original home ground is Dharamshala Cricket ground in Himachal Pradesh, India . But due to some reason Indore ground was Holkar Stadium was given as a home ground for KXIP.When you are playing matches on neutral venue’s you have this situation where the crowd choose the best team of the day to support. And when you are playing on your Home ground, you know that 90% audience will choose the home side.Mumbai Indians (IPL franchise) have performed very well in this years Indian Premier League (IPL). This could also be the reason why the audience choose to support Mumbai instead of Kings XI PunjabThis is what I think and opinions may defer.RegardsAnup Jamsandekar Media and MarketingSocial Betting with Prizes - India Bet
Why do people of Kingslanding appear to support Cersei and her war effort (cheering Euron in the streets) after she blew up the sept and their faith?
Like all cities/countries, there are those who oppose and those who support government ideologies. However-in the GOT universe, to rebel against the crown, or to even openly criticize it is considered treason and punishable by imprisonment/death.Keep in mind there is no such thing as free speech in medieval europe/Westeros.Additionally-Cersei/Qyburn lied about the real nature of the sept being destroyed. This is evidenced by Cersei telling the Iron bank that it was an accident.Since there is no Twitter, CNN or even newspapers at the time, the people, for the most part, must take her word for it.

Do you support affirmative action like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr?
A society that has done something special against the [black man] for hundreds of years must now do something special for the [black man]." - Martin Luther King Jr. In 1965 the writer Alex Haley interviewed King for an interview that ran in Playboy Magazine. Haley asks him about an employment program to help "20,000,000 [black people]." After expressing his approval for it, King estimates that such a program would cost $50 billion. Haley then asks: "Do you feel it's fair to request a multibillion-dollar program of preferential treatment for [black people], or for any other minority group?" King: "I do indeed. Can any fair-minded citizen deny that [black people have] been deprived?" http://www.nola.com/opinions/index.ssf/2...
Did Martin Luther King Jr. support affirmative action?
Yep. The term “affirmative action” wasn’t in use, but that’s what King Jr. was talking about: (courtesy of FAIR, The Right Has a Dream)“A society that has done something special against the Negro for hundreds of years must now do something special for the Negro” to compete on a just and equal basis (quoted in Let the Trumpet Sound, by Stephen Oates).“Within common law we have ample precedents for special compensatory programs…. And you will remember that America adopted a policy of special treatment for her millions of veterans after the war.” (1965 Playboy interview)FAIR writes that King “initiated the first successful national affirmative action campaign: Operation Breadbasket. In Atlanta, Philadelphia, Chicago and other cities, King staffers gathered data on the hiring patterns of corporations doing business in black communities, and called on companies to rectify disparities” …King boasted of “800 new and upgraded jobs [and] several covenants with major industries” to increase hiring of blacks.In 1964, writing in Why We Can’t Wait: “Whenever the issue of compensatory treatment for the Negro is raised, some of our friends recoil in horror. The Negro should be granted equality, they agree; but he should ask nothing more. On the surface, this appears reasonable, but it is not realistic.”
