Of all the other poor analogies that have been made, athletics is the worst. The rules in athletics are designed so that decisions can be quickly and decisively. There are no appeals courts. Decisions of the refs are final. Moreover, everything needed to make a call in sports is visible tot he naked eye, not so in everyday life. Finally, sports rules can be contained in relatively small books. Our laws, and their interpretation, occupy thousands of volumes.

It would be a better world if life were as simple as a football game.
