re: #244 albusteve

yeah, football pales next to death metal addiction…c’mon, it’s entertainment, and plenty of good life lessons when you play it in school

Yes, really important life lessons like, “hit em hard” and “hit em harder”. Overpaid bullies for the most part. And who wants the post game “celebration” that burns your business down and costs thousands if not millions to clean up? People always claim these teams bring money to their towns but I don’t see it. I think that’s what they want to believe to justify the money spent on it.
Playing sports for fun is cool. Watching your kid run backwards around the bases is a blast. Paying anything over $50 to watch someone else play a game? My definition of insanity. But to each his own. We all have our little weaknesses.
