could just be me...

...and it usually is. but could someone PLEASE tell me this: on WHAT PLANET is a game so damn important that it would warrant threatening someone's LIFE? come on, you morons! IT'S JUST A GAME. i'm sorry. i know y'all hate that phrase, but honestly. come on. in the end, it doesn't even matter. when your life is over and you have to answer for all you've done, do you SERIOUSLY think you're going to be grilled about the outcome of a STUPID GAME?!?! uhhh...something tells me no. however, you most likely WILL have to answer for why you found it necessary to threaten someone's life.
in case you guys are wondering where this random moment came from, larry and i have been talking about this lately. and just now i read about the oklahoma-oregon game where an instant replay ref has been receiving death threats for a missed call. and not only that, they've threatened his FAMILY. ok, this is just freaking ridiculous. i love my vols as much as any fan loves his team, but under no circumstances would i EVER threaten to harm someone over what is seriously A STUPID GAME. do you hear that??? IT'S JUST A GAME. LET IT GO. there are more important things to worry about than the final score of any given game. the war in iraq, starving or abused children, the homeless, blah blah blah. yeah, those things are worth getting riled up over. games are not. it just pisses me off. that's what's wrong with this country today. people have their priorities all wrong. Heaven forbid...whose life is going to be threatened because the jags beat the steelers tonight? big ben's. ohhhh, yeah. that'll solve ALL the world's problems. let's just off big ben! then there will be world peace! seriously...y'all are idiots.

These are the people that base their lives around football. The samething happened a few years ago at the Bama UT game up in Knoxville. Also during a drunken stooper after the Bama/Auburn game a guy up in north Alabama killed another guy because he wsa mad aboutthe game. These people are the ones that call into sportstalk it is very very sad. It is just a game. It's sad that people let a bunch of 18-23 year old guys control them butthey do. Anyway Bootsy the cat says Hi lol
