Dont your football fans spit on and throw beer at their own players?

thanks for all those welcoming notes...I hope to drop in here occasionally in these middle years(65-75) of late adulthood(60-80) and old age(80++), if I last that long. After 32 years in classrooms as a teacher and 18 as a student I am happy to be somewhere else for what may be half a century of different kinds of bells.-Ron
