In the storied history of the United States of America, there have been many scandals and many crisis driven controversies that have threatened life in America as we know it.
When a national crisis comes to mind, I think of Richard Nixon and the Watergate scandal. Another crisis that generated national attention was the Iran/Contra crisis. Still another national controversy involved Bill Clinton and an intern named Monica Lewinsky.
Yet, perhaps the greatest scandal in the history of this last best hope for mankind involves the NFL and the New England Patriots deflated footballs.
As most of us know, Tom Brady, Bill Belichick and the Patriots have been accused by the international community for forcing the Colts to play with a deflated football in last weekend's playoff scandal. The enormity of this grave crisis cannot be underestimated.
When I heard the news, I was floored and spent most of this week in a darkened room, lying in a fetal position and adult diaper. I have wept profusely over this international incident and I am calling on President Obama and the Republican led Congress to come together for a special joint session of both houses, to deal with this severe issue.
The fact that the Colts could have potentially played with one or more deflated footballs may spell doom for America as a civilized Democracy.
In fact, this is the gravest controversy in recent memory. I believe every aspect of every minute of every day is spent on this issue alone by the media and the international community.
I am crushed beyond human comprehension and am not sure if I will live to see another day.
It is time for America to focus all its attention on this issue alone until justice flows in the United States like a mighty, mighty river.
