But eventually the season will start and other storylines will be more pressing and if he plays well everything will be fine.

The statement they released was congratulatory and reaffirming.<br /><br />I'm not surprised that some *individuals* might have poor attitudes about it -- at least initially -- but I'm optimistic that a guy like Sam can change their minds.<br /><br />(Also, keep in mind that the media skew is at play here. "Actually we think it'll all be fine" is not going to sell stories.)<br /><br />Anyway. I saw the Chevy ad yesterday and absolutely adored it. And these kinds of commercials make me feel like we're subverting Russia's homophobic messaging. Unfortunately I doubt *Russians* are watching these same ads... but still, they're reaching a wide viewership.Kristanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04771013578685419826noreply@blogger.com
