I watch NFL sometimes and good college games also, but I don't feel great about it, and it's become so ritualized that it's getting boring. If enough parents keep their high schoolers from playing, that will gradually have an effect on quality of play. But sports is America's civic religion and there is no fall sport to replace football, since, unlike lacrosse and soccer, it can be played in bad weather. Hard to see how Americans will gather around something else. [/QUOTE]
