Wild Card Weekend!?!?!?
Well, it's come and gone. Yet another week of exciting football. Winners are the Patriots, Colts, Seahawks, and Eagles. My question is not what game will you be watching next week, or who are you rooting for? It is simply...why do you even care? Pro football has lost something, and I don't know how to get it back (do I really want to?)--the fantasy season is over...I've won (for the first time since 2001 mind you) and I no longer care about the NFL. Maybe it's the rediculous thought that should you bad mouth an official you get fined (I also detest the NBA). Maybe it's that you can't celebrate after a touchdown-- NO, THAT'S NOT IT, it's the fact that each and every NFL "star" celebrates EVERYTHING (and it's creeping into college ball). So in a letter to every NFL player I simply ask-- isn't that your job? Don't you get paid a large amount of money to do this? I certainly don't jump up and down and play a fake guitar (see D'hani Jones of the Eagles) when I send an email or hang up the phone after a conversation. Grow up. Earn a little respect for the game. Not that it's that great of a game to begin with.
