And for the first time in five years, I have no interest in an National Football League regular season weekend. None whatsoever. No Giants, why bother? In fact, with so many teams resting players and so many mediocre teams battling for spots in the AFC, there’s really isn’t any reason to watch. Even the good teams — like Indianapolis — screwed me out of any Sunday enjoyment. No perfect season to cheer against. Maybe I can take comfort in the knowledge that they won’t win the Super Bowl.
There is one option, I guess. I could tune into the Philadelphia-Dallas game and hope the giant H-Definition screen comes crashing down to the field. But that would be wrong. Wrong in the sense that I would be watching NFC East clubs (not named the Giants) headed for the playoffs. What’s that? Oh yeah, you’re right. I guess it would be wrong to hope for the giant H-Definition screen to come crashing down to the field, too. OK, I don’t want the giant H-Definition screen to come crashing down to the field. That would be bad.
Maybe Troy Aikman will fall out of the booth. Consolation prize.
