Citizen Foyle

Everyone looks up to Adonal!

Adonal Foyle- the man, the fan favorite, the shot blocker- the citizen. Yup, that's right. The longest tenured Warrior is now a United States citizen after acing his oral exam on American history. Adonal can now participate in rocking the vote here in the US of A, which is extremely important my friends because as we all know Democracy Matters. Seriously, peep the message.

Congrats to Citizen Foyle!

Adonal Foyle, California US Senator by 2k15

Would you vote for Adonal?

I would

He would make a greater senator/president than he could ever make basketball player. (Not a slight against his playing talents, but I think he really cares about world affairs, not like some bum from Texas we have in the office right now)

if we write him in for mayor of oakland...

if he gets elected and chooses to accept the position, does that mean the w's can void his contract?

Mr. Foyle Goes to Washington, Please!

The man is lousy as a bball player, but as a human being, he is flat-out great. And every other American who doesn't vote or doesn't follow politics or doesn't give a damn about anybody but themselves should be humbled and embarrassed by the activist work and involvement of Adonal. He probably knows more about our political system than 90 percent of the people born and educated in this country.

Last year, SFist wrote a piece on his political activism, and we're now very, very happy to see that he is an American citizen.

Foyle isn't shy about getting his message out there, and much has been written about his childhood and political activism. He's a passionate advocate for campaign finance reform, and for all the right reasons too. Pointing out that if elections are for the public good, they should be funded for the public good, Foyle envisions a political system in which all segments of society have equal access. You're dreamin' big man, but we're with you.

Congrats Adonal and welcome aboard -- our country is better for it.
