Commentary: Patriotism, Gratitude, and Western Civilization

Many years ago, I attended West Forsyth High School near Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Though our sports teams then were generally mediocre, at basketball and football games our cheerleaders would inevitably break into a chant: “WEST IS BEST! WEST IS BEST!”

That cheer came back to me while reading “The Decline and Fall of the Descendants of the Roman Empire.”

    Used to live in W-S back in the 1990s. Didn't like the place, very snobby upper class. As for West Forsyth, the only time they were good in b-ball, was when Chris Paul played there 15 or so years ago.
