You confirmed my own thoughts on the matter, when I saw this interview as the big headline on Poker News the other day, I just rolled my eyes and didn't bother to give it a listen.  I knew it would just be a softball game, not hardball.  I rolled my eyes and moved on.

I've been thoroughly disgusted with online poker and the community for over a decade.  When Black Friday happened, most players just shrugged and moved on, and I've never been able to accept their ignorance or their lack of passion to fight back against the hypocritical  government taking away our freedom and our right to spend our entertainment dollars as we so choose.  The top-level pros have the bankroll to just fly to Mexico or Canada and so they kept right on going without much upset.  They had no worries whatsoever.  The rest of us are the ones who got screwed, and we got ZERO backup from ANYONE.  Nary a soul has ever spoken out against the government for their absurd actions.  And it continues to this very day.  Poker is filled with utter losers in my opinion.  Spineless cowards and wet-rag personalities.  But its really no surprise I guess - this is a game of selfish "me first" attitude by its very nature, which doesn't lend itself to community or togetherness.  Forums like this one are a rarity, but notice how there are no professionals here except the few that are sponsored (i.e. paid) to be here.  The Sarah Herrings are put out there to put on the appearance that "all is well, poker is a great sport and pasttime."  Yuck.  She's the proverbial lipstick on the pig.  LOL

Enough of my rant.  It changes nothing and nobody wants to hear it anyway.  :D
