Naugaskin?

I am grossly offended by the use
of pigskin at U.Va. football games.
Kicking its earthly remains around
Scott Stadium represents
disrespect, if not cruelty, to a small
minority animal. I'd like the team
to stop it forthwith.

However, since reason is
desirable in all things, I suggest they
substitute a little stuffed cushion of
naughahyde. No one, even myself,
could possibly be offended by an
official action which supports the
Gross National Product, and, as
well, honors the naugha.
