Are sports life?

As if there were any doubt left about whether sports have become way to important in our society, get a load of the conversation I heard on the radio this morning. The morning host and the sports caster were arguing about the fact that Tony Romo has a new girlfriend. If you don't know, Romo dumped Jessica Simpson just two months ago and he is now apparently seeing another attractive, blond, semi-celebrity.

The sports guy was upset that this will be a big distraction to Romo and the team here at the start of a new season. The host felt like Romo has the right to a private life. Duh.

With all the junk going on in our world that needs to be newsworthy and that people need to talk about and deal with, and these guys think its important to talk about Tony Romo's love life. As if it matters to anything going on in the real world. We have so lost it as a society.
