Get a life

There are so many addictions in life. Drugs, alcohol, food, internet porn...You name the fixation and you can bet there is a PhD somewhere writing about how it ruins lives.

But, what about sports? That might be the most powerful opiate of all, at least to a certain group of fanatics that failed to learn it's all just entertainment.

And, Philadelphia is loaded with these losers. People more concerned about ending that 24-year old drought than focusing on building a family or contributing to society.

In fact, it's only a matter of time before Philly creates its own Robert Comer.

Comer, who was sentenced to death for fatally shooting a man in 1987, was the first person to be executed in Arizona since November 2000 on Tuesday.

The murderer actually brought a picture of his daughter with him to the death chamber but instead of using his last words to talk about how much he loved that daughter or how sorry he was for his crime, Comer smiled and used them to say, "Go, Raiders."

A stunning lack of maturity by a man who probably lost touch with reality sometime ago.

I mean the Raiders?

How about E-A-G-L-E-S...
