*My brother and I were both members

of the Superior Senior High School Spartan Football and Track Teams.

Ron was also an excellent swimmer (a specialist in the Butterfly--if you don't know how awesome that is, have somebody teach you that stroke) and I was a pretty good weightlifter for our school.

Anyway, that may explain why we both have a tendency to say nice things about the Spartans. Actually, I haven't yet, online, but I must say that they were the greatest warriors the world has ever seen. And pure examples of both the positives and the negatives of the warrior class. For the inventor of the time machine, the most interesting study that could be done would be to pit various numbers of Spartans, Kshatriyas and Samurai against each other.
