The College Football Season is Getting Closer and Closer

Let me get one thing clear. I love the NFL. If I was proposed a deal to give up a toe for a Vikings Super Bowl win, that would be something I would strongly consider. And I'm dead serious.

But overall, I prefer college football. All the games, all the excitement, the different strategies, the freshman coming in playing with the seniors going out... I love it all. The crowds, the atmosphere, the rivalries... I'm with these guys - Every day should be Saturday.

Let me just say one thing - I watch a lot of football each year, both NFL and NCAA. No NFL game that I have ever watched was close to the excitement that I saw from USC/Notre Dame last year. The traditions, the crowd, the overall excitement and anticipation is just something I can't get from the NFL. And I didn't even have a rooting interest in the game.

This is probably coming off as me not liking the NFL, which couldn't be further from the truth. On a scale of 0-10, the NFL is a 9.9 and college football is a 10.0.

So what does all of this mean? Well, it's basically a fancy way of saying I don't have much else to write about now because I'm working on some college football stuff, since the start of the season is less than 3 weeks away. So get ready for that, if you want. Or if not, that's cool too.
