I hear ya; I sympathize/empathize/whatever about the cultural deterioration. but you know what? Most of those dumb ass teenagers are gonna grow up just fine, and the ones who don't probably wouldn't have back in the day either. And at some point, their sports fanhood will probably even kick in hahahaha.

But for the most part, things just continue to change but the majority of people still remain "good." Yeah, one wouldn't be likely to recognize society if they could see it 100 years in the future, but that's just how things are, for better or worse.

If for no other reason, technology facilities changes in almost every other aspect of life; from farming, to business, to social interactions, and basically everything else. I haven't been alive for 65 years, but I don't need to be as I can notice that change in the time I have been alive. Things are substantially different now than they even were when I was a kid growing up in the country, at least for many.

We will survive.. certainly, but we most definitely can and should improve as a nation.. for the short term and long term.

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
