What's that you say?

Is there a way to combine an unhealthy percentage of the South's insane affection with guns and their insane over-valuing of college athletics over, say, college?

Why, yes, yes indeed there is.

Proof that the true value of athletics is that it keeps the city of Tuscaloosa from going to actual war with the city of Auburn (or Cleveland with Pittsburgh, Chicago with Green Bay, or Dallas with, well, everyone).

Re: Dan F: That was one of the points in the classic novel ECOTOPIA. The breakaway state established quite violent sports to vent off the natural???? violence of young men (and women) and group identity in a...relatively...harmless way.

Interesting concept.
