George Will makes some very good points in his latest column. Is American football truly devolving into bloodsport? Can it be saved? Can the sport, as it exists now, be considered compatible with American values?
I think professional sports like this, boxing, wrestling, UFC, etc. should all be played by life-in-prison inmates. They already work out enough, just teach them to play/fight with style. The incentive would be the winners live like kings, at least by prison standards. The best part is nobody would care what happened to the losers.
