Thank goodness for the NFL Network - it kept me going all spring and summer.

To quote the great Art Donovan - "Ain't football great?"

We've got two games on NFL Network today: Bears-Rams at 1 ET, and Chiefs-Giants tonight at 8P.

Then tomorrow evening it all kicks in.... [g]

54 games over the next three weeks.

I love the NFL Network!

Thank God for SEC football! May my Bulldogs and Rebs both make it a good year! And may Joe Gibbs bring the fire and the H back to the 'Skins!

Of course, there are those of us who ignore the NFL for college football. Where we can pretend it's not about the money.

I would resemble that remark. Only three more weeks till Oregon St. goes to Baton Rouge...

Thank goodness for the NFL Sunday Ticket.

Nothing is cooler.

30 Days until kickoff.

I live in San Diego.

How are the San Diego Chargers and Billy Graham alike? They can both make 60,000 people leap to their feet and shout "JESUS CHRIST!"

How are the San Diego Chargers like opossums? They both play dead at home and get killed on the road.

Where's the safest place to go if there's a tornado in San Diego? Qualcomm Stadium; we never get a touchdown there!

How do you keep a San Diego Charger out of your yard? Put up a goal post.

Hope springs eternal. Just think South Carolina in 1861. Or Germany in 1939. Or Philadelphia anytime.

This year, give up your Bud for another brand. Augie Busch IV is a big Kerry supporter and he doesn't need your bucks to help the Dems win.

Amen! Rich Eisen can be a little much, but I love the flashback games, and the NFL Playbook.

I like the NFL pretty well. Go Falcons! But college football's championship system is a joke and college football seems overrated to me. College FB is a nice spectacle, but I think college basketball (men's) is by far the greatest college sport and my favorite sport of all. Especially in March. Only 62 more days until college basketball practice starts. I'm counting the days.
