Guys, football is king in the south and the country for that matter. I'm older than most of you and remember in the 70s the experts saying soccer would overtake football in popularity by the 90s. Well, they were wrong and it just won't happen. The physical nature of football and violence with which it is played simply has too much appeal to the human nature. Like it or not football will continue to be the #1 sport in high school, college and the pros.
