After the lockout and the court hearings and the debates and all the rest of the garbage we finally got down to training camp. It was a nice filler but a lot of it didn't mean a whole lot. Particularly the preseason games. Interesting to watch but not a very good indicator of what comes next. Next will come the slash and burn of getting rid of the excess players and trying to hide a few rough gems on the PS.

Now all we have to do is to dodge the Presidential sound bites that will last way too long and after we clear that final obstacle we get to watch the real show.

One week from tonight. I am ready. Bring it on.

Back to the main point: you have no idea how much I pine for real football. I've appreciated the influx of conversations/rage inducing idiocy on this magnificent website (and I don't mean that jokingly). We are all ready for some real football.

I'm sure if things get rough I'll jump, ever so predictably, to McCarthy's defense. But I don't think things will be rough. Our expectations may be pretty high, but we seem to have a team that will meet them. I'm excited for week 1, but I also think it's arguably the hardest game on the schedule and season openers can tend to be goofy. I'm really excited for October/November/December. The whole journey will be fun. Last year taught me to enjoy the crapshoot that is the NFL, and while I'm confident about this year, if things go badly I'll be poppin' in my Super Bowl XLV DVD to fall asleep to. Things are lookin' up.

I wonder what a $400+ bottle of liquor tastes like. I guess I'll find out in November.

I wouldn't mind three more months of summer, but as long as cold weather has to be coming up, I'll take the football to make it all worthwhile!

Everyone knows what I think of the value of listening to BO or lack thereof, and so I'll pissed if said BO runs into the game/delays its start. To my mind, if I have to listen to the clown for 2 minutes, that's 3 minutes too long.

But as an aside, and wholly apart from my general political views, does anyone else get bothered by a President and "leader of 300 million people and the richest country in history" who decides the length of his speech by whether it interrupts a football game or not? This strikes me as something, well, un-leaderly.

I am not trying to pick on the President. I know he preferred to speak on Wed. But he is not. Therefore we have to wait until he is finished before were can watch the game.
