Sportsline resets poll due to Cheating!

CBSSportsline  has issued a "re-do" on the Fiercest Mascot Voting competition between Jaxson DeVille and the Raider Nation. 

This is what they have posted at the current time, and they have not reposted the actuall poll as of 12:30pm EST. :

Note: Since there has been cheating on both sides, we are giving fair warning and another chance to redeem yourselves. The poll has been reset with 24 hours left to submit your votes.

Let's keep this a fun competition.

 

And that folks is a direct quote.  I hope  that the Raiders Fans get the message here and that they dont restart this war.

 

I hope that we will all keep close watch on this and VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!!!

Freek, You're da man Bro!

Way to stay on top of stuff freek, I really appreciate you constantly adding and contributing to the site. You’re opinion on players and the way you keep up with even the most transient info really sets you apart! I know Chris has thanked you before, but I wanted to convey my gratitude as well, cats like yourself are what set this site apart!
Thanks!

p.s. I really think you’re gonna like what Chris and I have planned for the “Dead Zone”, we’ve got some really cool ideas. Other sites may not have new stuff as often during this period, but I assure you that Chris and myself will be posting new info very regularly.

Tried to vote

I don’t know about anyone else but it was blocked. I could not vote at all.

Have the intelligence to know the difference between the Policy and the Soldiers!

I had the same problem...

While I have no doubt that both sides are guilty in the misuse of the poll, I have a really, really, hard time believing that there are over 200,000 Raiders fans in Australia and the Pacific Rim. Based on the time that the vote total exploded, there’s either a whole lot of insomniacs in the Bay or the Raiders should move to Sidney.

hhmmm i wonder...

I wonder if they determined who began the cheating and then who followed suit to just defend their honor…and are going to declare the correct winner after today since its the cut-off. Id be interested to see that.

Go Jags!

Ok Guys I pulled this little excerpt from the Raiders Forum, and I thought that this quote was quite interesting as it admits that the Raider Fans are cheats and degenerates as well as to support Chris’s assertion that there was an Australian Conspiracy to “rock the vote” for the Raiders!

Le Freek strikes Again!

I'll second that

Being a big contributor to this poll, I will admit I got into it probably more than I should have. HOWEVER… I’ve had more fun smacking with the jags than I have with any chiefs/charger/bronco fans in a LOOONG time.

O and a BIG thanks to the Aussies! Those who were part of the original thread know what this is about

Thanks NEXX for the sig!

I’M IN!!!

Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift; that’s why it’s called a present.

Go Jags!

and another partial quote from the same poster in the Raiders Forum

.............Who cares if a bunch of us cheated on the mascot poll? I WAS ONE OF THEM AND I’LL OPENLY ADMIT IT WITH PRIDE! You may not think it was that big of a deal, and I know Hitman and BH don’t think it was that big of a deal. Thats great! They didn’t post much in the thread about it anyway! And when they did, it was to say how stupid it was and I’m 100% fine with that. They were right!!!!!!!!!!! It WAS stupid! In the end, 2 teams got disqualified. Who else would you expect it from, though, really? WE’RE RAIDER FANS!!!!!!!

As John Madden said: “Rule Number One: Cheating is Encouraged. Rule Number Two: See Rule Number One.”

Go Jags!
