With Liberty and Telestrators for All

On this, the opening day of the NFL season, I am struck by the same fact that strikes me every other September, when the election season and football season coincide.

Our country, built on the principles of self-determination and open competition in the marketplace of ideas, offers me the football fan my choice each Sunday of four different NFL pregame shows. In almost every election, it offers me the citizen a choice between two political parties.

Since I do vote but don't watch NFL pregame shows, I've always wished that was the other way around.
