Yeah 70 whatever percent of the people in this poll voted no, so I guess that just means 70 whatever percent of the people don't understand the meaning of a conflict of interest, that means over 70 percent of the people here are wrong. As for what the stat is unmistakenly clear about, I really don't know what your getting at, but you are certainly giving Fischer and others company atop the stupidity beyer figure board...Hell gossard, it may be time to let go of the superfecta you had and explore quintifectas and higher based on what I have seen in these threads.

Actually....if 70% up the people on here agreed with me I would probably apologize to Stauffer and say I was wrong. Then turn off my computer and go play with some building blocks.

I voted yes, but a conflict of interest can exist even if there are no improper acts as a result of it. If you want to hear someone acting on it, listen to that bay area homer (LIL JOE MORGAN) comment during Dodger games(on ESPN.)
