Sunday January 6, 2008 - Football

Football - I'm thinking about football. I think about football a lot. I used to play as a kid, in HS and a little in college. One of the numerous bummers about getting older is there's nobody around that wants to play football. At least nobody my age. If I wanted to get my ass really beat up I could go play with a bunch of 20 somethings. I'll pass. I have to go see customers without looking like Quasimodo.

So instead of playing football, I watch football. This thrills my wife. No, it doesn't. She counts the days till the season ends. And then she wants to buy new couches since I've made huge dents in the exisiting couches from watching football.

Even though it's not blogged, I thought the Jags and Seahawks would win Saturday. They did. I'm also pretty sure the Buccaneers and Chargers will win today. I'll also go way out on a limb and predict the Patriots will win the Super Bowl. I need to rename this the "Captain Obvious Blogspot".

College Football is a mess. The Bowls are nothing but meaninless exhibition games. This year's BCS title game is a farce. How can every other division 1 championship and title be decided by tournament, but football can't? There are at least 6 teams with legitimate claims for # 1 this year, and that's before the winner of LSU vs. OSU monday night. BTW - LSU will put a beatdown on Ohio State.
