What if Teddy Roosevelt had allowed football to be banned?

Would there be an secrant? Would people be obsessing this much over college basketball or (yikes) baseball? Would we all be soccer hooligans?

My liver would probably be in a lot better shape than it is

society would probably be better without sports to distract us from our actual problems.

My Falls would be a little less sadder.

Alabama fans would have nothing to live for.

But they wouldn’t be Alabama fans because there’d be no Alabama football. Maybe Alabama would be a utopia.

I would have a heck of a lot more money in the bank than I do now

It probably would have been unbanned at some point like prohibition. But all the more reason that Teddy was the best president this country ever had

Without football, we’d brought back having Christians fight hungry lions in a pit.

Without football, we would have had to fight the civil war all over again.

I have read several times that basketball was more violent than football and that Naismith regretted inventing it.
Whether true or not, I do not know.

Couldn’t get a boat on the lake or a tee time.

Soccer & "diverse" groups are doing a good job of doing just that. How LSU got Austin soft is hard to understand.

We would all be geniuses and uber productive like Costanza when he gave up sex.

Without football, American society would have softened 100 years earlier than it did. I guess we’ll have to wait to see who takes us over.

All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years.
At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.
