Fall seems to bring out all the turds doesn't it? Football season opens and everybody goes nuts....at least here in Alabama....if you are a supporter of the University of Alabama or Auburn University. And no where else are a state's people so hateful and critical to each other over two football teams. I don't understand why a person believes that THEY have actually accomplished something because their particular team as won a FOOTBALL GAME. It is really great for a team to win all their games but it doesn't mean a thing. After all there will be another game, another year, another win, another loss and another Championship. We idolize these football players who run up and down the field going NO where and paying them all kinds of money to do it and never give the deserving people in the world a second thought. Deserving people being men and women in the military fighting for the freedom of the country and getting paid a small fraction of what an athelete makes. Not to mention people who devote their lives helping less fortunate people in devastating situations....for instance rebuilding after Hurricane Katrina. There is something really wrong here.
I like football games and the excitement of a game but when it is over I don't really think about it again. I sure don't base my life on whether or not MY team wins the championship for the year. I support my team whether they win, lose, or don't even show up again. Who cares?
It is a game folks! Grow up and put your priorities in a "mature" place!
