Isn't politics just another sport?

When love of sport turns to hatred for the opposing team
that's seriously taking the 'we' against 'them' too far

Bullseye, Line. Spot-on... I sued to think that sports was a substitute for politics. Now I think that it's the other way around, since sports stars are better known among a majority of Americans than all but a handful of politicians. And most are certainly richer than politicians.~ gw
