    If I could avoid ESPN by skipping those sports considered "prime time" then I'd seriously consider it. Soccer isn't going anywhere so get used to it.

    Soccer is the Squeak of the sports.

    The Omega of sports..... I'd have to go with Curling. I still don't know what the hell that is.

    If you're good at it you can make millions. I might move to Canada if thats the case. Hell. I'm leaving anyway if Trump wins!

    When you build your private university you can award scholarships to whomever you choose. That kid never saw a nickel of your money dude..and for your historical reference....our country was founded by Europeans who didn't have ID cards either.

    You are not talking about white countries.....when folks point out the double standard as I did with Canadian acceptance nobody protests. Nor should they..and again....a Hispanic kid who earned a scholarship did not get in the way of your social services unless maybe he got a library card

    You can't prove that. Whereas there is info out there that has Dept. Of Education giving money to Georgetown. So yes, our money does go to support these illegals.

    The other crap you posted makes no sense in this day and age. We did not have immigration laws back when we were taking this country over and claiming it as our own.

    You don't think him or his family use our infrastructure and services? Come on now. That's plain bullshit.

    Ha! Oh man, I never thought of that angle. A liberal exodus if Trump wins! Geez! This could be really sweet.

    The thing is, as a country we should know the people who are residing here. Its only smart safety. Other countries also want to know who is in the country. There are rules for a reason. If you are not going to enforce rules, you are essentially allowing people to break them.

    Its a weird situation. It doesnt bother me that the kid earned a scholarship through hard work. Imo, i wish america had more people with that drive. But it does bother me that rules arent being enforced to stop illegal immigration.

    I dont really have an answer for what to do. Its a tough situation.
