(62,276 posts)What a magnificent writer. He'd probably make more money writing books. And that's saying something since writers don't get millions per 'play' (ie, book).

Although to be honest, I WAS looking forward to the "orgy of hedonistic debauchery." Pooh.
SpankMe
(2,957 posts)American football is generally a pretty conservative enterprise. It is sheer bravery that this man came forward with such a bold and candid statement on this issue.
He also happens to be right.
