Football As The Iliad
a: Watching football ~
b: watching live battles from the Iliad
What: "Watching football is like watching live battles from the Iliad, only (for the most part) without the blood-Achilles, Patroclus, Hector and all the rest strain, in my silly imagination, trying to stretch their bodies, in a ferocious battle, all the way to a glorious death."
