Default Re: The final word on Vig: the truth

[ QUOTE ]
There is a great expression coined by the Canadian politician Gordon Campbell (loosely paraphrased):

If you are in a room full of people and say "the next person who walks in is the clumsiest person I've ever met" and the person stumbles and falls, people will say "what a clumsy bumblefck".

If you are in a room full of people and say "the next person who comes into this room is the most agile, graceful person I have ever met", and the person who walks in stumbles and falls, people will say "what a graceful recovery."

I'm pretty sure the rest of that goes 'if you are in a room full of people and say "the next person who walks in suffers from a disease which makes walking nearly impossible" and the person stumbles and falls, people wont say [censored].

As soon as the vig premise was accepted and greenlit by the higher ups, you wouldn't find suspicion from below.
