I need to stop watching sports.

I'm all pissed off right now that USC lost to Texas, a game I just got done watching. The beauty of it is, I neither went to USC, nor Texas. In fact, the college I went to didn't even have a football team. So I shouldn't even care about college football in any way, shape, or form. So why am I pissed? Because before the game, I decided I hate Texas. Actually, I've known for some time I hated the state of Texas. Any state that could produce George Walker Bush is a state that I cannot tolerate. Any state that nominates George Walker Bush to the title of governor, is a state I cannot tolerate. And any state whose primary contributions to the wonderful country is the death penalty and longhorn cattle, is a state I cannot tolerate. So, suffice to say, I don't like Texas. Thus, I projected my hatred of the state upon their college football team. It was good vs. evil. USC represented the enlightened citizens of coastal states everywhere. Texas represented the christian fundamentalist, bring-em-on attitude I have come to resent from all middle states. Thus, I watched the game with passion. And now, I am pissed. The good guys lost. Bush won again. It is the 2002 election all over again. Another affirmation that our country has no place for progressive thinking. I shall spend a restless night pissed off about this game.

I truly need to stop watching sports.
