I agree in large part with TulaneLSU.Football is one activity that has contributed to the downfall of our nation.Too many worship at the altar of the NFL.I have even been in church when services were cut short so as not to miss kickoff.
Also I just don’t see what the big excitement is,it’s pretty much the same thing over and over.They try to run the ball,most of the time they don’t get very far,sometimes they do.Make a pass,often they don’t catch it,lots of time they do.Over and over and over again.
As far as high school football,I didn’t play even though I would have liked to at the time.Thing was my family was poor,if I wanted money I had to work after school and weekends.I felt like a nerd compared to the athletes walking around with their letter jackets.50 years later,I don’t feel so bad.Bunch of us get together at a restaraunt periodically,the ex-football players have mostly all had knee surgeries or replacements,back surgeries,etc.I’ve had none of that.Financially,I ended up better than
a lot of them.I don’t feel like a nerd now.
