Football effects the lives of many in substantial ways. This book
first addresses the notion that this is "merely entertainment." The
significance of why football emerged atypically in Texas is
discussed as well as what this portends for American society.
Unsurprisingly, Texan disparities in income and racial segregation
dissolved in the mirage that all people are equal at game time as
spectators. Major institutions such as the military additionally
mesh with the ethos of pro football in various ways. The marked
regional rivalries of the Dallas Cowboys are emblematic in a
society of other polarizations, including political, racial, and
gender conflicts. What is needed are substantive and constructive
approaches to societal problems instead of ongoing destructive
palliatives.
