Perhaps you’ve read the comic strip "Shoe" by Chris Cassatt and Gary Brookins. Today’s was especially entertaining to me. Shoe is watching TV and the announcer says there are only 32 seconds left in the football game. Shoe goes out and shovels his sidewalk, makes and eats a sandwich, goes to a movie, paints a canvas and returns to the television. The announcer now says, "Wow. What a football game! And, there are only 17 seconds left!"
I am certain there is a football game in the final seconds of the game that started in 1964. Does it not strike anyone strange that the games on television end with new players because the ones that started had to quit because they got too old to play?
