PC Ruin "Runs"Rampant

Ok, I am sitting (literally sitting on the floor.... no seats available) in the Phoenix airport waiting for a delayed flight to Dallas (ug!) and I just looked up at the television monitor and saw a visual blurb about a legless football player. Now I believe in following your dreams and all. I also believe in the amazing adaptability of human beings in the face of limiting situations. I also believe that it is an imposition to the rest of the players to allow a legless person to participate in the game of football (I mean ... shouldn't you at least HAVE a foot in order to play FOOTball? Ok, rude, but it had to be said). I feel that in all fairness to the rest of the participants that such an allowance ruins the very nature, spirit and objective of the game. Football is a full-contact sport. How is another player supposed to face this stump of an opponent? Cheer him on as he receives a hand-off and wobbles up the field running an impressive 4:33 40? By the way, that's 4 MINUTES 33 SECONDS! Pick him up and run him into the end-zone and then spike him on the ground? Either way the opposing players and even fellow teammates are prohibited from living up to their true athletic potential as either option leaves them feeling like a pathetic WWJD freak in the former posit or a total dick in the latter case.

By the way.... as an aside to the WWJD..... I hope he would grow the dude a couple of fucking new legs!

J. used to be into growing people new legs, but he hasn't been in a couple millennia. He's busy with more important matters these days, apparently.

An all-legless football league would alleviate your concerns. If there aren't enough legless football players to get one started, we'll just have to create us some...

HAHA! ICM! Maybe an all legless team is to ambitious.... shall we start with an all dwarf team?
