- Two more reasons to support football at CU:
-
- 1. Help out the financially strapped NFL which cannot even support its own
- farm system like major league baseball.
- 2. Help out the financially strapped physicians in the area who need to fill
- their offices with large injured undergrads.
-
- Of course you can give your money to whatever useless activity you want
- such as football or academics. Personally, I am looking forward to the
- time when our sun becomes a red giant and engulfs this planet. That should
- finally put an end to this argument.
