There are people who feel the same way about your sports. My sports, boating and scuba diving are personal enjoyment sports. Getting stupid, drunk, and going ape**** becasue other people are playing with balls is something I just don't understand. I guess thats the type of thing you enjoy doing, I just don't see the sport in it if you're not even playing the game, just watching other people you don't even know play.. ....geeze the more I think about it the more stupid profesional sports sounds. John C. So are you really trying to say that you don't see how anybody can get any personal enjoyment from a sport they don't DIRECTLY participate in? I guess then, that could be taken further. Do you not get enjoyment out of watching a good movie? A play? Your young child in a school production? If you can't see how anybody can get enjoyment out of something they watch, I feel sorry for you. |

And not even supporting your underpaid football union brothers. Bill Bill, do you honestly feel that if someone supports a cause, or a stance, that that person is automatically supposed to never question their validity? Now, I know that is the Republican way, to robotically support their crooked president, and never question his objectives, but intelligent people usually don't think like that. |

God help us. :-) Great, traffic jams so these idiots can stand around yelling and cheering like a bunch of morons because a group of overpaid grunts played with footballs. Millions upon millions of dollars spent on it while kids go to bed cold and hungry in this country... What the f#$k? am I the only one who sees the stupidity of this whole waste of time and resource activity? It's a whole lot less then the waste of time and resources spent on recreational boating, which could much better be spent on kids who go to bed cold and hungry in this country. Steve |

A lot of people would say the same thing about your boat. Except that professional football does benefit the community a lot more than your boat does. Harry, a communist like you should love football. It provides enjoyment for many more people of lower means than recreational boating does, for lower cost per person. Steve |

Harry dislikes team sports because organized team sport is a meritocracy. Some are more skilled and harder workers than others, and the skilled, hard workers get bigger rewards, while those with lesser skills and effort fail -- with no regard for their so-called "self-esteem". This is the way every business ought to be allowed to work, but we all know that is not the case. |

It's amazing how much "analysis" low-brain-output types like you try to squeeze out of your various orifices, and how hard you work at it and yet how wrong you always are. What do you do for a living, John? Certainly nothing that requires abstract thinking. I dislike most *pro* sports, but I do enjoy some college sports. If I'm in Tallahassee "in-season," I'll gladly attend an FSU football game, although football is not among my favorite team sports, and I'm not an FSU alum. My favorite team sports are rugby, swimming and track, the three sports I most enjoyed participating in in high school and college. I have the honor of losing and losing badly in a 1960s shot put event to Randy Matson of Texas A&M. He was incredible. I was merely on the team. What a joy to watch that guy. Got to photograph him, too, the next year, while a stringer for the KC Star. -- Email sent to is never read. |
