Oh Football Where Art Thou?

With nothing really to post about, I am going to write about the utter lack of football in my life. Basketball season is over. I have never really given a rat's ass about Hockey. Baseball is in full swing, but truthfully? Baseball is about as exciting on T.V. as golf. Which means that I find it better suited for an afternoon nap than for television viewing.

Going to a baseball game is a lot of fun. Unfortunately, I live in Raleigh, NC. What does this mean you ask? Well, it means that the Yankees will never be playing an away game in this damn town. I could even settle for the Mets, but once again, no major leagues.

We have the Durham Bulls. Sort of. They are 45 minutes away from me. Durham might as well be another country anyhow. I have been there once, the entire city was closed (it was Sunday...why have ANY SMALL PART OF YOUR WHOLE FUCKING CITY OPEN ON SUNDAY?!?!?) and went home.

I did like Bull Durham though. Good movie. See it.

Anyhow, I want football back. I don't want to hear anything more about juiced up players doing their best to hit home runs and ass fuck the most holy of sports records of the american pastime.
I would much prefer to watch juiced up player smack the fuck out of each other while wearing body armor that would make Batman proud.

I need to get cable to I can watch the Jets this year.

I suppose I could watch Soccer. Ugh! I just can't get into watching a sport that Rick Allen could play just as well as anyone.

Plus...Soccer is gay...not that there is anything wrong with that.

Gimme Football, please.
