The best sports time of the year is only two days away. The start of football season. College football will get things kicked off on Thursday and carry us right through the weekend. The following week the NFL will start to play games that count. The beginning of October signals the start of NBA training camps. Baseball playoffs will be in full swing leading to the World Series. Last but not least College Basketball will begin play in November.
We will have football, football and more football right through the new year. Basketball's regular season will fill in the days between football games and if you are experiencing a slow night, there will be baseball. Some people may think what about hockey. Sorry, but even when the Pittsburgh Penguins were winning the Stanley Cup I was not a hockey fan, The only hockey game I have ever watched from beginning to end was the, "Miracle on Ice", team of college kids that beat the Soviet Union juggernaut.
So get the beer ice, cold. Stock up on the pretzels. Oil the Laz-Y-Boy. Last of all but most importantly change the batteries on the remote. Nothing is worse then when you are changing back and forth, during commercials, of several football games and the remote stops working. Unless you forgot to not only change the batteries but to stock up on them.
To our lovely wives. We will see you in April, after the NBA playoffs. Unless you care to join us. Then we can watch all of these games together. I am one of the lucky ones. Mine will at least watch the basketball games with me. TWO MORE DAYS!!!!!!
