No Country for Grown Men
As I was looking for the Spurs/Hornets game last night I came across a show on ESPN 2 called Madden Nation. Apparently I'm not paying attention because a whole nation has been created. These people are intense.
I've since researched this Madden Nation and discovered it's a country of 10 million people. Naturally, Brett Favre is the president.
After about 3 minutes of watching this program it hit me that I was watching a show about people playing a video game. How lazy have we become? We don't even have the energy to actually play the video game; we watch other people do it.
I couldn't believe people would want to spend a beautiful spring evening in front of the TV watching other people play a game narrated by the Ace Hardware spokesman.
I was disgusted, so I changed my mind. I didn't watch NBA basketball last night.
I enjoyed nature, by watching a fishing show on the Outdoor Network.

Ouch!! Point and match. I was skeptical as first, but that Madden Nation thing is actually real ... very creepy.
