Eh, I'm so glad that our game was "away" this weekend. I used to enjoy football... er, the inappropriately named American football (am I the only person outside of Europe who actually gets how inappropriate the name is?) until I got to college three years ago and found how frickin' seriously everybody takes it. At good old Ole Miss everybody and his uncle and sister and any other distant relative is a complete "football" freak, and it wasn't long before I hated the damned sport. Every weekend there's a game here, the campus becomes like a country preparing for war... if preparing for war consisted of roping off all the parking lots, setting out hundreds of never-used trash cans, and dozens of porta potties. Ugh, the whole thing just drives me crazy. I've only been to two "football" games the entire time I've been a student here, and it probably won't change before I graduate. That's not to say it's totally a waste of time, as I used to have quite a bit of fun playing backyard "football" with my friends back in my pre-teen/early teen years. Of course, I also played plenty of soccer/real football and enjoyed that too. But oversaturation of the market killed the sport for me, and now I just wish it would die. On a lighter note, though, I loved "Brian's Song".

And how come making a sport for females automatically makes it inferior?
