A story about the future of sports in America. (I have temporarily not made this this story accessible because I've submitted it to The 10th Annual Writer's Digest Short Short Story Competition.)

It's 2046, and CircleBall has taken the sports world by storm. Come "watch" the very first Great Bowl, a matching of the two very best CircleBall teams in the country: the Denver CircleJerks vs. the Oklahoma City DieHards. Witness the future of sports in America. See what the sports world reveals about our culture, about the merging of three major American preoccupations: sex, violence and religion.
