    Something strange about this. Healthy young athletes are dying around the world mysteriously. Several soccer players.

    The longer I am on the earth the more obvious it becomes our priorities are really screwed up.

    Playing a game and glorifying it, where young men basically destroy their brains for our entertainment.

    Tens of thousands of people dying every year, the biggest killer of Americans under 20 years old is from gun violence...... all because a bunch of men want to preen around with guns to make up for their inferiority complex.

    People struggling to decide if they are male or female.

    Housing costs through the roof and a rampant drug problem started by a drug company that gave wealthy doctors money to prescribe it.

    Crazy we have high schools spending millions on STADIUMS (not education) so kids (99% of which will never play in college) can go bash their heads in, as if it actually matters or carries any real importance in life.

    I remember a decade or so ago, when Marble Falls was voting to build a new whatever-million$ football stadium, my dad saying to me "I loved HS football, HS football was really good to and for me. These boys don't need a whatever-million$ stadium to play in."

    These stadiums are dick measuring contests and have little to do with the actual football players.
