CoffeeTiger 5,914 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Bruce better be paying attention to his team as much as he does politics and social media. The SEC is pretty loaded and Alabama in particular has had an amazing offseason and will be one of the favorites to win the conference next season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_M4_AU 8,978 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 News Flash: Bruce Pearl is Jewish. He is defending Israel and if that includes going after the leader of the free world for his actions that seemed to be against Israel, he has a right to do so. If Biden acts like an ally, Bruce would have no problem with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce is disappointed about how this administration is in supporting Israel during a war with Hamas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You throughout the subject and expect everyone just to agree with you? Typical. Bruce makes a number of posts on Israel. I didn’t cite one of those. I cited one that only the most partisan of folks would retweet. My thoughts on the reason for him displaying his level of partisanship on social media? Extremely poor judgement and poor impulse control. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, he is openly partisan because this administration (Biden) has undermined Israel’s effort to rid the world of Hamas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnatl1 6,206 Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 It’s the age old question if “celebrity” should be used in a political context. I personally wish that Hollywood and sports guys stayed out of it - but it’s the culture today and is his right (so long as it doesn’t violate his contract or hurt the university). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homersapien 12,262 Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 The irony here is that Biden's policies have at their core a concern of what is best for Israel. Netanyahu - and the ultra right - is a curse on Israel and the damage they have created will last for generations. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
