Football bug
« on: September 18, 2007, 12:01:08 AM »
I'm a little late on catching the football bug. Until now I think I've been the only person in Texas who didn't give two hoots about Football. Last time I watched a Football game, the Fridge was playing.

But my teenager has his first football game tomorrow.  So I'll learn the lingo so I know what's going on... but if I ever wear the shirt, the hat, & paint the face w/football colors, carry the logo-draped folding chair & get a bumper sticker, txdad has permission to just shoot me.

Good luck to him!
Our lives are football from July (Camp) until November. It's one helluva commitment by both kids and parents.

You're not the only one. Some of us think team sports are kinda lame to begin with :)

Now now, let's not forget that magnificent time out called before Janikowski kicked last week, then missed it the second time around.:D

Rumor has it the Minnesota Vikings are a football team.
but judging from the last game against the Lions.
I beleive it to be just a rumor.

I still predict they will go 1 and 1 against Chicago Bears though
