I've heard that US football--or whatever you want to call it--combines the worst of American culture:    senseless violence punctuated by committee meetings.

But any sport that gave us "Dropkick me, Jesus through the goalposts of life" can't be all bad.

I was at a bluegrass gig during the "big game" and tried to get the band to do it.   They like the song but weren't ready.    A terrible missed opportunity.
