Remember?

You would go to a football game and at halftime, you might make it to the concession stand for a few snacks and beers, and when you got back, the marching bands were taking their turns stomping the field? Then halftime was over. Not anymore. Halftime has now been turned into a battleground of politicalContinue reading “Remember?”

Take Your Medicine/Super Bowl Critique
