I mean the NBA.
I enjoyed my days playing football. Of course, I did not fit in with most of the team. I did not listen to rap or country. I cared about school. But they were a great bunch of guys.
We were a bunch of individuals who sweated together. We were a bunch of angry guys who were angry at different things, but come Friday night or Saturday we were a team.
I do not know what this says about anything. But I said it.

That there us no camraderie in academia?
You sat at lunch Thursday with myself and a champion of academia. We were three individuals who could not function anywhere besides academia. We were three egotisical assholes who would cut each others' throat if it helped one of us.
Our conversation only interested people in academia. My grandfather would have punched all three of us.
We went home to our own offices and gave no thought to each other.
I am saying I would not want to go to war with most of my colleagues.
I am saying there is no team in academia.
To have a team there has to be a clear objective. There is not one in academia.
Except to steal money from taxpayers.
Keep up the good work. thnx!
