Just watched the first NFL game of the year

Eh......

That's my reaction.  Eh.

I'm sure there is some sort of Patriotism Police out there keeping tabs that I've officially sized up the NFL kickoff with an emphatic, "eh".  Well I'm guilty I guess.

Today was a big day for me though, so really it would've had to be a major game for me to get up for it.  Plus, this is my one and only day off this week, so I'm already in 'work mode'.  It's hard to turn it off.  But a little extra cash will feel good when it's all said and done, right?

So let me just do a quick rundown here, I've got to get to sleep to prepare for some manual labor tomorrow.

1)  The NFL really is just 'eh' for me.  I'm sorry.  I know I'm in the minority here on this one.

2)  I finally bought a movie package on my cable.  Finally.  I got Showtime to watch Dexter this year.  But it came with Encore as well.  So I just got done watching "Stand By Me" a bit ago.  Good stuff.  I've already got every sports package they offer, they should've given me a free movie package out of principle. 

3)  I'm now part of a group of six writers over at Sports Jambalaya.  It's still pretty free form, but it's another outlet to write on.  So check it out over there.  I've still not put in my first article.  That will probably be coming here this weekend.

I think I had more fun watching Ben's 6th grade scrimmage than the NFL today. I just have to agree. There's so little 'sport' happening in the NFL. It's all commercials and downtime and commentating and replays and and and and and....

Sports Jambalaya looks cool. I'm looking forward to reading it.

Watch the Sunday morning game on channel 6. I'm sure you'll come around.

didn't watch... don't care.

I can only really pay attention to NFL on Sundays, and my attention span is not great at that.

I have AP in my fantasy league. I fantasied about 25 points. Instead, I got 11 or 12. Not a good start to the fantasy football league for me. Hopefully this weekend will treat me better.

And yeah, it was a yawn fest last nite.
