Dear American Football, Please consider this my official Dear John letter to you. I have, over the last several weeks and even seasons become really dis-enchanted with most of your purported sport and have finally reached my last straw. I will no longer be a general watcher of your sport going forward. I have been coming to this break with your sport for some time now, but events over the last several weeks have just completely cemented my choice to abandon you. Honestly, I have never been a super big fan, other than the shared something to do in an often social environment, so my abandonment comes easily enough. After all, no big fan of any one team, but rather the fan of any game that offers a good level of competition. I am sure you are perhaps finding this as a surprise and maybe I am just catching you off guard completely, so I will fill you in on a few details as to why we are reaching this end of our sometimes Saturday and Sunday relationship.
The last couple of months, as I think to have noted elsewhere, I have rediscovered an old favorite past-time – notably fishing! I am extremely dismayed however at the lack of American made fishing equipment and the shoddy stuff that is coming from oversees is much less quality then in the past.
Adam Shepard is a hero and author of a book I really need to read about just being smart with what you have.
I do not care if you are even the President of the United States – you do NOT have the right to, under any circumstances, torture a captive.
