Super Bowl Post Game Riot!


I am not a football fan. Truth be known I think the entire sport is a little homoerotic. Guys bending over in front of others guys waiting for the ‘ball’ to be hiked to them. Sounds a little gay---not there is anything wrong with that.
Hell, I only found out today that the Bears and the Colts were playing. I really just don’t care about the sport. It is boring and corrupt. Plus, they abuse the players and could give two shits about their athlete’s health.
But, enough about my hatred of the pigskin. My prediction for the Super Bowl is the Colts by two touchdown---29-16. Nah! Just kidding I’m not a bookie, how the hell should I know? But, with the country so tense in these days of war and terrorism I foresee overzealous fans rioting in the post game hours. And it will likely be some of the worst post game riots in decades.
Why? Because, when people are subjugated and are having their basic freedoms usurped they look for an outlet. So, rather than join an anti war protest, or fight the government’s intrusion into our personal lives, the masses will instead take to the streets and wreak havoc over a silly game. It’s pathetic when you think about it.
Sociologists try to blame it on mob mentality. I on the other hand blame it on apathy. So many Americans are angry about the course of our government but feed them some pork rinds and beer and give them some overrated sporting event to watch and they become content to ignore all threats to their liberty.
So, tomorrow when Colts fans, or Bears, pour into the streets and start lighting cars on fire and smashing in windows imagine they are protesting human rights violations, or unfair taxation, or some nitwits latest attempt at gun control legislation. It won’t change what the blithering idiots are tearing shit up for but it might make you feel better.

Go Colts!!! **tearing shit up**

I am supposed to care, I'm from Indiana, but I don't. Didn't even watch the game. Not even for Prince at halftime.
