My last post for New Zealand!

Taha,

This is the last time that I will respond to you.

Obviously your game is to incite negative debate by creating arguments and then infusing them with how gullible and weak the American public is. You cover the landscape from American Football (is there really any other!) to WMD and Iraq. You are sure not to leave out the mass deception going on in the NFL, steriods in other sports, etc.

Keep in mind, as you sit back and criticize everything from American football to our policy in Iraq and accuse me of misleading the American public (?), U.S. citizens are strong, resolute, and united. You see, even when we disagree, we are united.

I don't think that the NFL is evil in their attempts to "sell" their product. I don't agree with a lot of what the NFL does to sell their entertainment (sportsmanship for one), but the fact remains that the best American-style football in the world is played by NFL teams. If you don't agree, suit up and come on over. A number of us officials would even work your game for free .

Not everyone in the U.S. is as smart as you, so at times we may be deceived by this silly game of football. I don't expect you to understand this, so I'm finished responding to you.

I believe that we should use this board to "build up" one another to be better 'AMERICAN' football officials, not engage in political discussions or chase red herrings about the evilness of capitalism in the NFL. So, unless you plan to put on the stripes and join us soon, good bye and God bless.
