Seriously, I don't care too much for watching football.

I won't be paying much attention to NFL stuff until after the World Series. (One sport at a time is about all I can handle at once! ) I seldom watch any game other than the Superbowl. I usually just follow the sports page reports.

Football is the only sport I really care about, and we have the DVR to prove it!

Of course, being a Redskins fan is not the most pleasant thing to be in the past.... well... forever, but it's still a lot of fun in the right perspective.

I can't wait! More so for NCAA football though as I see by your avatar you're a fan of the best team out there (no matter their record). That place makes me very HAPPY as that Valley is supposed to be.

Ole Joe Pa stubbornness kept the Big East from being the third best Conference in the country. (After the Big 10 and SEC).

Think of this lineup in Big East:

Pitt
WVU
Penn State
Miami
Boston College
Virginia Tech
Rutgers
UConn
Syracuse
Louisville
Cincinnati


As a Pitt grad and a Marshall fan nothing bothers me more than WVU's "success" lately. Though the MBA scandal and RichRod's departure (after Belein's last year) has made it all the better.

How bout them dawggggs! UGA!

Seriously, I lost interest in NFL after coming to Christ because football didn't seem like a good use of the Lord's Day on a lot of levels -- giving the whole day to worship, not making the "stranger within our gates" work to produce and play the game, etc., etc...
