The crowd (mob) mentality, reminiscent of South American, and even some European, soccer fans, has been evident in this country for some time. We have riots after national championship games, won or lost, quite frequently.

I do not believe that marketing and advertising execs are totally blameless for this particular phenomenon. Why such a limited number produced? Some people would be reminded of oil-refinery capacity.

No one, of yet, has been able to encapsulate and communicate all of the effects (damage) caused by the modes of thinking and operating, that have become "de rigueur" since the mid 1960’s. There are bits and pieces scattered about, but people would be amazed, IMHO, if they could see the big-picture. Maybe they would stop asking the question: What happened to my culture, my way of life, my very children?

Because the company needs to get the kinks out of the games & get feedback on the product.

I agree. Congress should launch an investigation. But I think they should wait until they can get the steroids-in-baseball investigation completed.
