oh boy

ok. the football season has had two weeks go by. i am a football fan. i'll watch any game. just to watch. i love it. things i've noticed since this season has started:
1. everyone sucks at preseason predicitions. rams and steelers 0-2? no one guessed that. pats 2-0 and looking like the best team in the league? supposed to be a "fluke" i live in patriots nation and no one here believed that and they like to remind you of that every single day. every single day.
2. the vikings piss me off more than is imaginable. lost two games cuz they can't play 4th quarter. i know minnesota is hockey country, but you think that football players would realize they have 4 periods of play and not 3. gary anderson is back, though. all time leading NFL scorer. best field goal kicker out there. he's the man, and he's back on the team. 14-2 will be a good enough record for me this year. (actually, i'm just hoping for a .500 season. *sigh*)
3. espn.com's page 2 "analysts" are my favorite articles to read during the season. no one can make better pop culture references and rant about the game of quiet desperation better than those guys do. and why doesn't bill simmons have his own TV show? this is a travesty of modern sports programming. at least get him on the fox pregame show. him sparring with terry bradshaw would make me smile.

speaking of football, TKE intramural is off to a fine start. a rough loss in round 1 to sig ep by one score made us hungry for wins. we responded by spanking lambda chi and crow. we are a force to be reckoned with. a nasty qb with two stellar recievers. a kicker that should be in the nfl, and an o-line that is better than the great wall of china. and a defense that likes to sack. God, i love football.

ugh, i just lost all concentration. i'll write more later. probably after a nap.

you make me stand taller (both literally and metaphorically)
