C'mon, Trog

Here's our favorite Wisconsin amphibian fretting about "giving up football".

How about college football? High school? Consider, if you will, people who "play" a sport, as opposed to "professing" it.

The NFL, like Congress, is mostly a pack of sell-outs who've lost their way, and deserve to be ignored. Which I've more or less done with the NFL since around the Reagan administration.

The big difference is that the NFL, while a sad caricature of its former glory, limits the scope of its damage mostly to itself. It is hard to imagine Harry Reid, as head coach of the Senate, or Nancy Pelosi in the House, as a bigger disaster.
