@WashingtonLawyer Actually, Marx was right.Of course, in his time, it wasn't a bad thing."Religion is the soothing balm of the people" is what he said.And that's the problem of anachronistic interpretations in the hands of the uninformed.

@Debradelai Or, perhaps put another way, bread and circuses are a form of soothing balm, and for some, in this case football, as religion.

@WashingtonLawyer @Debradelai same goes for all major League sports. People would rather have a long discussion on a particular play in a game that has absolutely no relevance to their existence.

@Debradelai @WashingtonLawyer Interesting.. I wouldn’t have translated “soothing balm” to “opiate” unless I wanted to slant the narrative a certain way!!!
