If a Pre-Season game is played and noone cares......



As the old and wise Koan goes "If a tree falls in the woods and no one is there is see it does it happen?" I think the same riddle exists today for the NFL Pre-season. Some games (most) really suck. Yes, it can be fun to watch to see what undrafted free agent will make that awesome catch and maybe latch on to a team or the guy who gets his only two passes that will ever be thrown to him in the NFL and drops one and fumbles the other. SEE YA!

It can be riveting and sad. Mostly Sad. Id rather be watching bad football in the pre-season than no football or (gasp) baseball but maybe they should only charge $30 a game to go see them. Its like going on a date with a hot girl but your forced to hang out with her really lame friend on every date.

Are you excited for the season?



Now that camp is in gear and we have almost the entire team returning things are looking much better this year than last year. Ted Cottrell has said he thinks the defense could play and win a regular season game if they had to play this week. If everyone is back healthy this should be a fun season to watch. I just hope there isnt too much pressure on the team if there are some games lost. If everyone thinks your going to go 13-3 its really easy to get down if there is a bad streak.

This kid looks like what I looked like when i got my season tickets in the mail. The "This is Game Day" motto sucks but the arrival of the tickets means the season is officially here. Here's to a new NFL season!

Note: Now that I look at this post I feel kind of creepy about putting the kid so close to the 'boy band guy". Be careful little fella!
