Letter to the Editor: The cure for politics? Sports!

(The following Letter to the Editor has been submitted by John Carver of Decorah):

"Feeling down, overwhelmed, angry, experiencing sleep deprivation? It's no wonder, since politics must be the culprit. There's a cure and it's called sports. Low cost, or no cost, depending on your view. No GMO's, pesticides, herbicides, or other impediments to affect your health. Doctor-recommended for all ages. Guaranteed to make you feel better.

Iowa provides a wealth of sporting events during the winter. For example, the Iowa Hawkeye basketball team provided the ultimate in crushing political daemons by defeating Northwestern Sunday evening. The last three minutes of the game would make you forget any problem. A three-point shot with six-tenths of a second left at the end wins the game by one point.

Remember, pick your sport and believe in it, You'll feel much better and politics will no longer rule your life."
