Waiting to hear the results until the morning of novembe november 9th. Turned into waiting a few more hours then days and now weeks after the fact he still doesnt know. Foxs natalie poe so has the improbable story. Im still living in a bubble of blissful ignorance. Reporter joe chandler works from home hes an artist and drawing cal length Social Security what has consumed him over the past week after he decided he was not going to find out who won the president ial race. I was invited to a little Election Party to stay up into the night with everybody gnawing they are nails and hanging on and theres got to be a better way. Reporter chandler says he woke up the next morning and felt so at ease he decided to give it just a few more hours. Having sub tracked myself from this political raucus and all of the mayhem of the digital mid media, i kind of found the center of the cyclone. Its very peaceful in my little bubble of ignorance. Reporter week after the election, chapped lower says he still does not know who won. Staying away from television, newspapers and social media. And when he goes out, which is seldom, he wears headphones and this sign that says, i dont know who won and dont want to. Please dont tell mow. For me its a like a breath of relief. Reporter his daughter emily lives in new noon and serving as her fathers lay yea son tendon sending edited version of whats going on in the world. Telling him about things that are happening. Theres civil unrest. There are people rioting but im not saying which side that could go either way. Chandler said this was not planned adding that hes not protesting a particular candidate. Not a big fan of either, but i did have a huge preference of the regime that i was hoping we would avoid. Chandler says he may not be able to live in his bubble too much longer. And at some pent im just going to get such cabin fever i say the heck with it and just go out into the world and will you have my life again. So when is he going to find out is the question . Chandler wont say who he voted for. Says as you heard hes not a fan of trump or linton. All right sean brace whats up . Lucy, after attending wednesday nights sixers game i have been asked by the fans that were there to deliver a message to the Decision Makers inside the sixers this year, i want the best bird for my family and my wallet. Natures promise fresh turkey is only 99 cents per pound with no antibiotics ever. Everything for thanksgiving. Thats my giant. I we can do it withoutg blowing our budget. Oh yeah, this is great everything for thanksgiving. Thats my giant. Heres the deal. Sean brace says the sixers franchise needs to be more honest with its fans much his commentary in 15 seconds. One would think that after the 10 win season the sixers had last year the franchise as whole would bend over backwards and honor of their fans. One would even believe after the last four seasons of losing basketball some might even say, tanking on purpose that the sixers as a whole would want to treat the royal fans the ones that pay the 18 parking beer, 10 beer and 44 price of admission like gold. Instead im getting a feeling that the Decision Makers for the sixers really dont care what the fans feel. You see on wednesday morning the sixers dropped a nugget of news via twitter that the best player on the squad joel embiid would not play in the game that evening at home. Instead they would rather save him and display him on natationl tv at minnesota the next night. A game that the sixers ended up losing by 24 points. No matter how you want to spin it trust me theres ton of spinning going on, the sixers need to concentrate on the fans these days. The product that has been out on the floor for over four seasons now has been a joke. But the majority of us believed that there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Only here we are again maybe a 15 win season. Folks, they play 82. Perception is reality, and thats what the saying is, then im sorry sixers Decision Makers youre showing us that the fans dont matter when it comes to giving us what we pay for. If youre charging us full price, then how about playing the full squad . Seems like the right thing to do. Or if we cant see eye to eye on that, how about free beer . Because thats what it will take to a get of lot of fans back in the arena after this past week. Lucy. You wont get much argument on that one. Free beer g43 beer.
