I would like you to tell that to Ray Lewis. In person.

In any event, is is a violent sport, but a very complex one, and very difficult to play. The plays tend to be very sophisticated, much study is needed, and many superb physical specimens never made it because they couldn't get the mental part of the game. Yes, most players are not mathematical geniuses, but you could say the same thing about Thelonius Monk or John Coltrane.

Leaving yourself open with a comment like that Glenn. Your ignorance is rather staggering considering your knowledge of other subjects. Time to realign yourself with this century.

On second thought...

I enjoyed both of those...

I'll have to nominate Andy Warhol's Frankenstien 3D. To me it seems that Warhol was puposely trying to make the more horrible movie he could... and in achieving, or even approaching that it is "a work of art"

I generally don't stick around much longer than few minutes into a bad movie, but I was once trapped in a tour bus that had a small television showing a movie with Adam Sandler where he played the son of the Devil (or what?). I couldn't believe how bad it was and swore I would never look at another movie with that guy in it. I've stayed clean since.

I do like football, however; Glen is just acting the horse's patootie again.

That's no surprise.


BTW, that Sandler movie was Little Nikki and it was actually (unlike his other films) rather funny.

Cheers,
Glen

Glen, I will give you credit for not bringing up the subjects of Plantation Mentality and the Exploitation of the American Negro regarding American football. Those are a couple of the main "intellectual" arguments against the game.

Little Nicky. That's the one. Well, to each his own, I guess.

John
