Football Season is Upon Us. (football americain)

Ahh, you're a Football fan, are you? It's baseball for me . . . But I gotta say, I love seeing Football come closer, 'cause that means it's gonna be Fall again soon

I don't spend all day watching sports, but do enjoy the playoffs. Life is way too short to spend four or more hours on the weekend laying on the couch watching sports.

Not if you make money doing it

Hi Sc-we are having fun watching the hall of Fame Game, and the grownups are playing a drinking game called Messed Up Madden, Come over and I'll teach your little ones how to spot innaccuracies by the Ref-black and white are the cool colors for infants.

Football rules.

Can't wait to see my beloved Steelers back in action, provided that Big Ben doesn't try to take out any more old ladies windshields with his jaw.

Fall is the best time. Football and baseball overlapping-- *sighs*

A game only lasts 3 hours. Once a week. I think my family can spare me for 3 hours once a week while i root for the Packers.

But who will cook and clean while you are lazing away the Sunday on the couch?

I'll try to get into it this year. I mean, I am almost 40.

The operative word being try

I so love football season. Fall, my favorite time of year--cool, crisp, breathable air. Ahhhh

Die-hard 49'ers fan. Even though they haven't done anything in a while.

Go Steelers! Ben, stay away from windshields

I work just down the street from the Tennessee Titans training facility. They've been out of town for the past week at a camp . . . practicing in 100 degree weather. I would feel sorry for them . . . but the new quarterback just signed something like a $59 million deal . . . so I won't feel that sorry for them.

In central Ohio we have three seasons: Winter, Construction, and Football.

The Buckeyes kick off in exactly 26 days. Wooooooo!!!

Should be a good year for you Buckeye fans. Texas is the same way only our seasons are Summer (about 9 mos) and then Football. And then more Summer.

Indeed indeed, football is coming. Can't wait to see what the Cowboys do this year.

But I must ask, what is this "fall" that some of you are speaking of. From the context of your words it would almost seem to be a season of the year, but that, of course, is impossible. The only seasons are Early Summer, Raging Summer, Tame Summer, and Blink-&-You'll-Miss-It-Winter. Right?

Buckeyes? Who are they?

GO BLUE!

Sheesh! It's just 3 hours! If it's a noon game there's plenty of time to cook and clean after! And if it's a 3pm game, so we eat a little late. No biggie.

Maybe if they got off their lazy asses and helped around the house a little they wouldn't be so dependent upon me!

Here in the Pacific Northwet we have The Rain, followed by What's That in the Sky? lasting a brief 3 days whereupon HOLY CRAP Turn Down the HEAT! for usually 2 or 3 weeks, then the Blessed Rain comes again for another 10 months and we're happy again.
