David, you crack me up. I had this exact same discussion one day when I
was a college student, actually sitting in Memorial Stadium watching the
Golden Bears play. The person with whom I was discussing it claimed he was
only there to "gather data" because he was writing a paper about the
violence in our culture and wanted to use football as an example.
