IF the politicians get the new stadium for the Vikings passed and signed into law, this may be a case of winning a battle but losing the war.

Coming on the horizon with a vengeance is the demonization of football as a “killer” sport. The myth being constructed is football's the equivalent to the gladiators fighting to the death for the amusement of the crowds in the coliseum.

If the do-gooders and wussies and libs get their way, the game of football as we know it is doomed. Football maybe banned outright or so emasculated as to be unwatchable (sort of like cricket — not the insect — the game of cricket).

In that case, all this house of pro football cards is going to come crashing down and the owners, fans, players, supporting staff are going to be broke. The money will go away. These football stadiums will be decaying monuments to the willful and assisted suicide of football.

At least that’s Rush’s opinion.

I would not be surprised if taxpayers get screwed twice, doublegood. Once to build this, again when trial lawyers get football rules changed making the game boring and unwatchable.(that $ will go to re-elect Dems) Teams will fold one by one, but the taxpayer will pay and pay.
