... are suddenly noticeable in their ubiquity:

Quarterbacks lifting one leg right before the snap,

Yeah, he is trying to claim/be a part of some of that "Glory Dance"
displayed when a touch down is scored.

I don't watch football/sports as a rule, but that's changed with my numerous
trips to AR these past few months ... too cold to fish, and not much else to
do with all those damn old folks/retiree's populating the area.

Seems like ALL quarterbacks are doing that little leg jerk before the snap
when in a shotgun formation. I noticed it in the HS games being broadcast,
in the college games, and in the pro games?

What the hell is that supposed to do/accomplish, and who started it?

and the use of the word
"passed" for "died".

Confusing ain't it. Makes as much sense as "My Bad".

"John Doe passed on Saturday, leaving ..."

"Passed" who/what ... gas, a truck, what?

I guess if you've never had to skin an animal to eat, you need to soften the
reality of life/death with figurative, saran wrap, terminology, eh?

A generation of pussies is upon us ...
