During the 1998-99 NFL
season, the most dominant quarterbacks in the country
were John Elway, Randall
Cunningham, Warren Moon, and Dan Moreno. Four guys
who should have retired with Joe Montana. This
year the entire league is on it’s collective
ear. Sorry teams are sitting at .500. The RAMS were
undefeated
deep into the season. The same thing goes for the
College ranks. Ohio State is having a loosing season,
UCLA and USC played each other down to a sorry nub,
where the winner lost by the smallest margin.
This is just a symptom
of an even larger problem that I have been predicting
for the past 10 years. Our
youth are becoming soft. Our young athletes are far
too willing to accept a butt whipping, and as a
result
nothing of any value has come out of the
nation’s high school athletic programs in the
past 5 to 10 years.
This is why nobody can
come up with a winning college football card that
will cover the spread. It also
explains why old men can lead their teams into
play-offs and Superbowls without the fear of being
sacked
by pitiful defensive lines, being led by a poor draft
pool a couple of years ago. This is why we don't have
an NFL Team in L.A. Hell, we have Satellite Dishes.
Tomorrow I will say the
same thing about the NBA, so don’t waste your
time reading it. |
