I for one am not the LEAST BIT interested in the super bowl. I mean why should I be? It's just another trivial sporting event. People are being paid millions of dollars to run and tackle each other. I don't know, but that seems a little boring. I mean, now don't get me wrong, I like football, but I just don't care. I mean I have been a 49ers fan for a very long time and I know all too well the wrath and sting of loss after disappointing loss. But that doesn't mean that I am now somehow insensitive to the notion that this important or bears a great value. I guess in general I just don't care.
This country is virtually obsessed with sports, I mean literally obsessed and I am not saying that is a bad thing, but it could be. Rome fell when the people were drawn away from the horrible things their Caesar's were doing and instead given festivals and carnivals and games and whatever else the government could throw at them to forget about what happening in the background. And don't say I am crazy, because if you think about it all professional sports are monopolies and in essence regulated by the government. Not that this is a bad thing, but still it could be.
Well that's all for now, I have to go.

Cheap Talk, throw your two cents in. Listen to what I have to say and you may actually enjoy yourself.
