Friends wonder: Why quit watching now? Sports addicts around here are going nuts with all the news: The Warriors have finally made the playoffs .Barry Bond's is chasing the home run record. And the 49ers are poised for a return to glory.
So much spectating to do. So many memorable moments not to be missed.
But doesn't that make this the BEST time to quit? After all, even the most addicted fan will turn off the set when the home team bumbles its way to defeat. That proves nothing.
The true test of one's desire to break free of sports addiction is when the "good stuff" is served up. In the days and weeks ahead, with Bonds challenging Aaron, and the Warriors making the post season, and the 49ers aiming for the Super Bowl, I hope my one and only response will be:
"Hell no. I won't watch!"

These include How to Be President of the U.S.A. and Demonic Mnemonics. A former instructor at San Jose State University, he is a screenwriter and lives in Northern California. (If you think that California relates to fornicate, you likely will enjoy reading Words of a Feather. The same is true for those who are absolutely certain that California has nothing to do with illicit behavior.)
