It has at long last begun. NFL season.
Technically it began last week on the astro turf in Boise, Idaho in a contest predestined to be remembered for what happened afterwards the blunt Blount party -more than anything that took place in the course of the 60 minutes of the game.
And now the Steelers - hoping to turn into the 1st franchise since the Pats to do it again - started their title defense with a sweet victory over Tennessee to launch the '09 football year.
I identify I am not as fruitful in the course of NFL season. All at once, I am only accomplishing stuff in between commercials, if at all, on weekends, plus Thursday nights, Friday nights, and Monday nights.
Then add in fantasy football - which severely lessens the amount of time I'd otherwise be productive, writing, or doing something prolific-and many more hours than I care to acknowledge will be spent on this game.
This time of year, I certainly do not eat as well.
Wednesday night, I had salmon with mixed vegetables and went for a swim after a six mile run.
Thursday (game day), I consumed a super burrito, too many chips, a handful of, some more chips, and saw the movie Max Payne after the game, before checking fantasy statistics for Kerry Collins and then staggering to bed, bloated from the chips.
Don't recognize if there are any football detox programs and even if there were, I wouldn't voluntarily partake. Hopefully my family wouldn't stage some sort of intervention.
Fact is, I don't want to quit, however as a Broncos buff that could change as the year progresses.
NFL and NCAA football are religion for a large percentage of the population. We're corn chip-eating cult members following the rantings of Chris Collinsworth.
So it is on. The 2009 year began and, like it or not, my days won't be the same until a month into 2010, when the natural NFL detox starts.
