Probably the one thing I'm most looking forward to about the upcoming football season is being able to watch college football again without having to hear the name... well, I'm not even going to say it. Let me just link to the latest bit of him-related (Him-related?) bullshit and move on. What remains to be seen, however, is how His former teammates will be treated by the media. For example, will Riley Cooper's new first name become [his]-former-roommate-Riley? I think the answer to that is directly related to whether or not Verne Lundquist will be calling any Eagles games this year, and how many touchdown passes Cooper catches. And, lol, I don't see that happening too much. I call that progress.
One thing you should know about ol' Turk is that I'm a die-hard fan of the Chicago Bears. This makes the news that Brett Favre is somewhere between 67.8% and "I'll tell you next week" sure that he's retiring that much more exciting, because that means the Bears will win the NFC North this year. I mean, look, Tavaris Jackson to Sidney "Who?" Rice is not something on which you want to pin your team's hopes. Favre's big plays last year covered up a LOT of offensive incompetence and poor coaching last year. As for the Packers, it's still not clear at this point if their pass defense has progressed beyond the high school level yet.
That's all I got for now, but let's hope Buddy and Rochester realize soon that NFL preseason has already started, and start posting.

Welcome, Turk, welcome!
It's taking every bit of objectivity I can muster not explicitly and childishly counter your Bears win the North assertion, but ultimately, I realize that you and I sniping about our teams is interesting to nobody.
(Thank God Rochester's a Buccaneers fan, and therefore irrelevant to any Championship discussions....)
Good to see some new action on the ol' blog!
