Today we witnessed the spectacle, the wonder, the glory of the NFL's most spectacular annual event.
Also this week, we celebrated the professional career of one of the all-time great linebackers to ever play the game, when it was announced that he would be inducted into the Professional Football Hall of Fame, after a 20 year career in one of the most violent positions on the playing field.
Junior couldn't be there to accept the honor because after 20 seasons of playing that position, the swiss cheese that used to be his brain told him to eat a bullet rather than live another day with the agony that was constantly erupting in his head. He was 43 years old.
I hope to make this (drain bamage) or something like this, into a periodic (weekly?) opportunity to discuss relevant issues that strike me (and I hope others) as painful reminders of how far we (humanity) have deviated from anything that could be called "rational" or "intelligent".
Yes, it's intended to be provocative.
