Super Sunday. Bleh. Who cares? Pro Football may be the most boring, time wasting, arrogant and insidious distraction ever created by (semi) civilized man. Can't stand the stuff. Now, College Football otoh, FREAKING ROCKS. Why, you may ask incredulously?
If you need for me to spell it out for you, here it is:
M-O-N-E-Y
As in "show it to me".
That is what the NFL is about. Not winning, not pride, not competition, not fun, not the thrill of victory nor the fear of failure, but money. Period. And please don't listen to the tackling dummy ditto-heads who try to promote its merits, because, honestly, the difference between the Gladiators vs Slaves, or Plantation Owners vs Slaves, or War Lords vs Slaves and the Colts vs Saints, is only one of time and space. Money is the new power.
And speaking of power, (nice punt, eh?), this video from the BBC, kinda connects a lotta the dots I juggle on a daily basis. Take a look and see how many of them you can connect.
And then please ask yourself (then tell me):
WHAT IF?

That Sunday morning session needs to be 2 1/2 hours long. I'll do suggestion note to Ted that 90 minutes is too short.

theres no money in college football? dont get me wrong I love it too but its a bit naive to believe that money doesnt drive college football no?
Out of 85 players on last years Husky team, two graduating seniors MIGHT make it to the NFL (Teo-Neshiem and Donald Butler). That leaves 83 that are there for the education and to beat the Coogs. I know about the money. I will argue, however, that money doesn't drive college ball near as much as it does in the Pro's. Proof of this: Jake Locker.
Of course, one day some scum-bag U will offer a scholarship to a 13 year old and destroy that argument as well!
