"hey football is the greatest game on earth..it sounds simple, take a ball from the side of the field to the other..but then you toss in the fact that 11 200 - 400 pound guys are making it their mission in life to stop you, added with the fact that you have 4 downs to work with, a 45 second clock against you, penilties to worry about, & an angery screaming crowd of 70,000 people who all want to see you break a leg..& suddenly it isn't so simple any more...how can you not love that?" ~Ricky Housewright
