Shuler says TVA controversy is cake next to playing at the Swamp
STATEWIDE–11th District congressman Heath Shuler told the Chattanooga Time Free Press that the heat he feels in congress — even on a bad week like this one — is nothing like the pressure Tennessee quarterback Jonathan Crompton (a Waynesville product, by the way) is feeling today at the University of Florida’s “Swamp”.
An excerpt:
“Playing in the Swamp is much tougher than this,” the 37-year-old Shuler said Thursday evening. “When you look at the people involved (in the TVA controversy), I’m 99.9 percent certain that this is politically motivated. That’s just politics.
“But when you play college football at a place like Tennessee, you feel like you’re representing the entire state every time you go out on the field. That’s much more pressure.”
