Hello, Football.
It's been a while.
Football games last three hours.
We only get eleven minutes of action.
But these games feel more like a family reunion.
"Oh, you're on the team now? Remind me, who are you again? And how did you end up on this team? Oh yeah! That misguided trade with San Diego. That's right. So what have you been up to this summer? What's that? Due to the lockout, you didn't improve at all? That's too bad. Well, you're on the team now, so we're stuck cheering for you, like it or not."
Linkage:
Including profiles of Todd Marinovich (groomed from birth for the NFL, he became a junkie and set an Arena League record after pooping his pants in warmups), Jake Plummer (quit football to move to Idaho and focus on handball), and Timothy Richard Tebow (who is probably the nicest guy who I irrationally hate because of where he went to school)
