Bread and Circuses! Lots of hoopla about the UNLV basketball team participating in the NCAA tournament...big deal! We raise athletes to the level of godlike heroes and praise their athleticism...but how many will ever graduate from the university? How many can complete a sentence without using '.. you know,man?"
We worry about the outcomes of a silly child's game while the rest of the world plots our downfall and destruction...it is a planned diversion to focus public attention away from the Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the declining dollar value and an impending depression and collapse of the American economy.
As a nation we are in decline as a world economic and military power...we are going by way of the Great Roman Empire...decay and destruction from within while our enemies wait to pounce on us...WAKE UP AMERICA...basketball is nothing more than a silly diversion...a waste of valuable economic resources while our citizens go without food, health insurance and other necessities of life.
