what It's Mte. 1 let up in the middle of
the race, mentally, but then I moved
up a few spots.

People ask me. "Darrin. how clo you come up
with an idea for a column?"
My reply to them is lt Is such a hard process
that you need to have had years of journalistic
training or.be able to balance a spoon on your .
Then they usually ask me when 1 got
released from the hospital orhow the therapy

' THE FUTURE OF SPORTS
I predict ln-the future there will be sports. I
know that ia going out on a limb, but If there is
V:
a future., there will be sports.
. 1 base this on astute observations from the
history of mankind. Ever since I can
remember (that being about 1973) there has '
been some type of sporting events.
I seem to remember from some history class
that the ancient Greeks invented what we now
call the Olympics. The Greeks loved the
Olympics because they were a hell of a lot more
exciting than philosophy and they usually
competed m the nude.
Scene from typical Greek Olympics:
"SoStuptfUcus, how did you dotn thepcte
vault?" - . I
"Poorfy Moronicus, and I think I pulled a
groin musde during the highjwnp."
Greeks loved this so much they eventually
all died of boredom. To honor our fallen
ancestors, we now have the Olympics once
every four years to remind us why we like
football
And of course football.will be present In the
future iffor no other reason than to have an
excuse to drink beer three days a week.
That's right, three days a week. Younave
college football on Saturdays, pro football on
Sundays and then there is Monday night
football. Monday night football was believed
to have been started by ABC to bolster their
Monday night ratings. Wrong. M lller Lite
Invented it.
But, football win be different In the future
Quarterbacks will beat least 6 feet 6 Inches'
tall and weigh over 300 pounds. Linemen will
be the site of small mountains and kickers
will fear for their lives. The rules will not
