NFL football starts thank god! My wife absolutely hates this time of year cause the football season starts, so does hockey, and baseball is about to go into the playoffs. Bring on the beers boys(and gals too), and cheer on your favorite teams. GO BRONCOS!!

And I don't care.
My oldest son LIVES for sports! Of that, I am glad. It has kept him out of trouble (possibly.)
As for your comments. . . . Ditto, ditto, etc., etc., etc.
I have far too many things to do, than to sit in front of the tube watching somebody beat the dog-meat outta some guy that is holding a piece of pigskin.

And lastly. . . it is NOT Sports. It is a BUSINESS. If the players did it for free, then it would be sport.

Roger that! Who wants to watch a bunch of millionaires try to up their stats so they can "justify" more money? If you want to see sports competition that is played to the edge of the envelope (in other words, "with heart") go to a friday night high school football game. Those kids are killing themselves for bragging rights, not a commercial deal!

Fantasy football - what a complete WASTE of a life!!!

A guy at work just dropped FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS to compete in a fantasy football league.

Xtraford, I don't care that you don't care that I don't care. (God I slay me)

Yes, lawn darts is a sport. I don't play it, but. . . . .
Have you ever seen anybody get paid for playing lawn darts!?!? Ah-ha!

Love of the game??? Sure, I love games. But, I just can't sit in front of the tube. . . . (we've already been there, done that.)

Wanna real sport?
Goose hunting.
Pheasant hunting.
Deer hunting.
Fishing.
Putting 5 shots into a target and they make one ragged little hole, at 200 yds.
Chasin' girls. Doh! (That was years ago. My wife would kill me!)
Now, THAT'S sports!

Listen, I come from beautiful British Columbia Canada so ya, I've hunted quite a bit and I've shot my fair share of wild game, fished in lakes in mountain valleys, and been at the range and popped off a few shots, and no i would consider it a recreation more than a sport.

You are totally missing my point about the football season starting, Im just happy to say its starting, thats all. Seems like too many guys here have there pants on a little too tight, and cant take a joke when they see one.

My favorite time of the year- first High School game Friday. I can't sit still for 15 minutes for a NFL game, but HS ball is a whole 'nuther story.
