...reason to watch football on TV. Just ask Michael Lasseter, the fan whose Nov. 16 dash through Atlanta's Hartsfield International Airport--reportedly to retrieve a video camera and still catch his flight to make a game--caused the airport to be shut down for three hours.

When that was supposed to be over, they had to face the 36 day Florida sprint. All the post-election vacations they'd been dreaming about were cancelled. The Tampa nightmare was followed by the hurry-up transition and a high-pressure first 100 days. Now, they're in a war the president tells them will last for years. There is a question about when...
