I ran into Bill Chaves on Friday who wasn't aware of the poll but would be mobilizing folks as well. I seem to only be able to vote once per device, not once a day. I'll keep trying.

Now, everyone should vote "don't care" on the baseball poll in order to obtain more football coverage hahaha.

A nice little blurb about the poll in the S.R. about their poll.


A GRIP ON SPORTS

You might notice a new poll on this page, just to the left of where these words sit. Then again, you might not, especially if you access this column via your mobile device. But either way, there is a new question, though we are going to spend the next few minutes discussing the previous one. Read on.

• Just about every website in America dose on-line polling, changing them on a daily basis or, like SportsLink, occasionally. I've seen, them you've seen them, everyone sees them. Most of the time they are like furniture, useful if you want to rest for a second but just there in the periphery if you don't. That's usually the case with our polls. A lot of you participate consistently. I know that because the number of answers usually varies just a bit, whether the poll is on the site for one or two days or a week. That's been the case for the past three years. Until last week. Then we asked a question about college football. And our local teams. Boom. Whose college football season is most important to you? Is it Whitworth's? Is it Idaho's? Washington's? A pretty mundane question, wouldn't you say? Not to college football fans. At least it doesn't seem that way. The number of responses was staggering. Almost 10 times as many responses as any Spokesman-Review poll in the last month. About 25 times as many as our usual polls. I'm not sure but standing up for your school seems to be a point of pride for college football fans around here. The final tally indicates Eastern Washington fans are either wildly enthusiastic about their team or they know how to use their computers better than anyone else. The Eagles ended up with 34.64 percent of the vote, using a surge over the weekend to get past Washington State, which had just a bit less than 30 percent. Idaho's fans turned out in better numbers (14 percent) than Husky fans (10.8 percent) with Whitworth and “other” trailing behind. The odd thing is only 1.4 percent picked “don't care,” which is quite a bit below the usual percentage. I guess it isn't odd at all. College football seems to bring out the mama grizzly (or cougar or eagle) in all of us.
