Super Season

by Bob Betzen

When did the football season get all mixed up with presidential politics? Let me see if I have this straight. All signs point to a blowout victory for one side, so we could have an upset. On team represents New York, the other Massachusetts.

Now which sport features the teammates that fight more amongst themselves than they do with the opponents? And which race has the racial overtones? Which one has the cheating phonies and which one is clean? Wasn’t one of the teams about to make history one of these days? Will someone wake me when it’s over?

I believe the Super Bowl is played on a weekend whereas Super Tuesday is during the week. But we have no Super events this week if you don’t count the Florida primary. Or was it the Arizona primary? Bring on the hype.

About Radical Avenue

If you want to find criticism of our government here in America, you won’t need to look far. When it comes to politics, it seems that everyone has a grievance. Radical Avenue on the other hand, takes a solutions oriented approach to public policy. It’s radical because I’m proposing fundamental changes to the structure of our government, like transferring commander in chief responsibilities to a small elected group. My philosophy is: Everyone knows we’ve got problems, so what are we going to do about it?
