The truth on sports (or at least he thinks so)

Sign Sign But Not Everywhere a Sign

While social networking is all the rage, it does have its limitations.  Too many important messages go unnoticed because we can't be Facebook friends with everyone and the Twitter pages are jammed for anyone who follows Ashton Kutcher and his endless (and mindless) posts.

So what's a sports fan to do when they have a message for everyone to read?  They create a sign.  Or, better yet, pay for a large billboard.

The 2009 Washington Redskins are a mess.  So bad, fans in the DC area say that healthcare and the war are now our country's 2nd and 3rd biggest problem.  They are more irate than Native Americans become when the team's nickname is mentioned.

But the Redskins franchise claims that it isn't their insult, but your injury that they are trying to prevent.  They claim that the signs obstruct the view of others and that they can also be potentially dangerous and harmful.

Yeah.
