College football as a metaphor for the current state of Republican politics!
College football bowl season is just about here so, could we see a lot of bitching about who really deserves to be in which bowl game? And maybe the bowl results themselves? It could happen and it could happen just as Garry Trudeau describes. Why wouldn't it? The Diaper Don and his total nutjob party have set a tone for so much of this country, and, look what Tommy Tubervile, a knuckle-dragging former Auburn University football coach is doing to the U.S. $enate.
All across the country, school board meetings look like saloon brawls. People are now bringing guns to city council meetings. We almost had a couple of fights in each house of Congress about 10 days ago. People might as well always carry a folding chair with them. Be prepared! Hell, why not? There's nothing wrong with most people that can't be quickly fixed with a power drill or an old fashioned claw hammer*. Could be wild!!!
*Personally, I'm now a modern tech taser and nail gun guy.
If the quality of refereeing in college and, even moreso, in the pros keeps getting worse, there may be mass, even violent protests. I'm sure americans will get far more enraged over football than their own republic.
