Is it wrong that when I'm watching football I always giggle when they announce the penalty of "illegal touching"?

"Illegal touch in the back" is better. :)

Yes, it is wrong. You should be outraged! In Lawrence v Texas, the Supreme Court determined that consensual touching between adults is legal! Those refs are enforcing laws that have been superceded!

(sorry. long lonely weekend. I get a little weird by Sunday afternoon)

Talking about football, apparently WorldCup qualifying matches have started and Trinidad recently beat USA (for the first time ever) in a qualifying match. We still have a long way to go before we qualify for World Cup 2010 but of course Trinidadians are already pumped up about it. A friend called me this morning from home and said he's saying to go to South Africa for the games. :D

That's very nice, but what does it have to do with football? : -)

Not at all! There are lots of football terms that make me chuckle.

For example: I'm watching the Raiders/Jets game, and they keep talking about "penetration". Tee hee!

If it is illegal touching *and* penetration, there may need to be sex offender registration! :P

Been working on correlating tribal offenses with Adam Walsh Act offenses and am still pulling my hair out and confused! double :P
