Don't get me wrong...athletic activity is very important for everyone. Team sports can teach kids important vitally lessons, if only the dumba** parent would sit down, shut up and quit trying to relive their past "glory" through their kid's Pop Warner game. The problem is We the Increasingly Stupid American Sheeple have placed waaaaaaaay too much importance on entertainment...movies, music, sports, etc...and don't give a rat's patoot about things that do matter...like our wide open borders, the coming war with China, the country's steady march to the Left, etc.
Sorry 'bout the rant...I just argued this last night with a co-worker and am still pretty raw about it.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
I totally agree with you on the subject of professional sports. Too many people make "heroes" out of these single talent ball tossers.
I've come out in the past and said th same thing. Some freepers have jumped on me pretty hard however that will not change my distaste for bread and circuses.
Once posted that while growng up none of my four sons was allowed to watch any pro sports on TV if they expressed an interest I'd sign them up for little leauge or Pop Warner and go to their games and root for them.
Some folks came borderline to accusing me of abusing my kids because I actually made them play and get the exercise and benefits rather than taking up a space on the couch.
