Troubling

Earlier I happened to finally see the brawl footage from yesterday's NBA game. That was bad enough--but what really troubled me was the response from the people where I was watching. They hollered for blood.

I'm not ready to say the end of Western Civilization is upon us--but there's no way anyone can say there isn't a significant culture of violence in this country.

And I couldn't help but think that soccer might actually have a future here.
