Just saying, I'm back to no longer participating in the Politics/Rants forum. Not to say I'm won't enjoy reading it. Like Tricia does, I'll pop my corn and sit back to enjoy the fights. Never could get into the NFL anyway.

I think I'm about done too Lily...and I hate football as well. Not to cause another knockdown, drag out, argument BUT I'm gonna give another one of my horrible opinions. That being, I think football players (as well as any sports players) are paid a ridiculously stupid amount of money. How or why anyone gets in to watching a bunch of grown men run up and down a field or court or baseball diamond chasing a freaking ball is completely lost on me. I would sooner stare at a wall. I have tried and it's something I can't even fake an interest in. (Though I'm not good at faking much of anything)

No one forces you to watch football if you don't want to. And they don't fore you to pay for it either. Compare that to a government system where "experts" make the choices for you and then fore you to pay for it. Bob

Bob,
If I were forced to watch football I would pluck both of my eyes out with a fork.

I paid for the Broncos stadium - 68 percent taxpayer funded - so I watched them lose to the Patriots just to get my money's worth. Is football really a free market?
