To drive the point home: take a look at the photos of the University of Oregon’s new football compound in this week’s Sports Illustrated. Nice is one thing; functional is another. This is the very definition of the word “excess”.
But let’s keep this in perspective: more than 10 years of spending $2 billion per week in the Middle East, and what has that gotten us? What could we have done to improve our own lot with that kind of money?
Anyone who cares so much about sports that they need to take anti-depressants when they find out ARod and Barry Bonds and Clemens have been roiding up needs a serious reevaluation of priorities in life anyway.
