It has at long last begun. Football season.
Technically it started last week on the astro turf in Boise, ID in a game fated to be known for what occurred afterwards the blunt Blount bash -more memorable than anything that occurred at a few point in the 60 minutes of the game.
And now the Steelers - seeking to become the 1st franchise since the Pats to repeat - started their title defense with a satisfying victory over the Titans to launch the '09 football year.
I identify I am not as fruitful during football season. All at once, I am only doing stuff during commercials, if at all, on Saturdays and Sundays, plus Thursday nights, Friday nights, and Monday nights.
Then throw in fantasy football - which severely lessens the amount of time I'd otherwise be productive, writing, or doing something productive-and many more hours than I am willing to admit get devoted to this game.
This time of year, I undoubtedly do not eat as well.
Wednesday night, I ate salmon with mixed vegetables and went for a dip after a six mile run.
Thursday (game day), I consumed a super burrito, too many chips, beers, ice cream, more chips, and saw the movie Max Payne after the game, prior to checking fantasy stats for Kerry Collins and then stumbling to bed, full from the chips.
Don't recognize if there are any NFL detox programs and even if there are, I wouldn't voluntarily take part. Hopefully my family wouldn't stage any sort of intervention.
Fact is, I do not want to quit, however as a Broncos enthusiast that might change as the season progresses.
NFL and NCAA football are religion for a huge percentage of the population. We're corn chip-eating cult members following the rantings of Chris Collinsworth.
So it's on. The 2009 year began and, like it or not, life will not be the same until a month into 2010, when the natural football detox begins. - 29967
