I hate college football!

You may think this has little to do with LBD until you realize how angry I get at night!!  I am sitting in my new lift chair, with a cup of coffee, my faithful Poodle friend by my side, trying to watch Pre-Season Football.  But the local station keeps interrupting the game to tell me about some groupie gathering of South East Conference college football morons!

First of all, college is was originally designed for the upper class, rich people. to send their children to finish their education.  It was meant to broaden their spectrum.   In World War Two, the politicians wanted to pay back those who served so they came up with the GI Bill.  That made a way for any young person to go to college and turned the universities into trade schools!  Don't agree, watch those TV commercials.

College sports were little more that inter mural sports that cost nothing.  Today, they are billion dollar industries paying caches million dollar salaries.  College football is little more than the NFL minor league.  In any case, I am against ALL college sports!  You go to college to learn.  College football players do not go to classes, and when they do, they take fluff courses, that some smart nerd writes the papers for!  Most NFL players cannot read or write!   The idea that they are in college is a fantasy!  Maybe that is why Fantasy Football is such a big thing!

Then there are the so called fans of a college team that NEVER went to that college or any other college.  In the SEC, those fans are missing every other tooth, weight 300 pounds, and are very much like NFL players in that they can neither read or write!  Why would THEY be college football fans.  They haven't graduated from High School, or probably the sixth grade, which was the hardest 5 years of their education!!

If the NFL wants a minor league, they should start one like Major League Baseball did!  The NFL should pay the bill for this and not the tax payers of a state!   And by the way, very few college baseball players make it into the Majors in baseball.  They are too old by the time they graduate and they do graduate, unlike football players.

So, colleges and universities should be required to STOP all sports!  Stop ALL Scholarships for sports, and make college an academic endeavor!  It would reduce the cost of higher education and stop watering down the esteem of a college education.  Dumb jocks that can neither read or write can compete in the minor leagues of sports!

There, I don't sound too upset, do I.  It is night time!  ANd, if I offended you because you are a college football fan...GOOD!, I'm glad.  There, I feel better.  I'm going to bed.
