   It's been six months with only trivial games like basketball or baseball to pass the time. But the dark times are over, because FOOTBALL. It's the New Orleans Saints vs. the Arizona Cardinals in the Hall of Fame game, 8 PM on NFL Network

Well, then enjoy! Not my cup of tea, but I would never stand between a person and their favorite sports.

Enjoy the game.

I'm ready for some football. After the NBA playoffs, there's just a void. Not even the Olympics can begin to alleviate the boredom.

Meh. I love football, but this isn't much of a game. I'll be watching, but likely doing other things.

Both of these teams are going to suck eight shades of diarrhea this year. Why should we waste our time watching them play on a high school field with junior high refs?

I hope everyone gets injured so they will stop having these inane scrimmage games.

I think the insane coverage of preseason games is lame, and I do think they could get by with 1-2 less... you do realize every team sport has a pre-season for a reason.

Grrrrrr.......I can't watch the game because I'm forced to get my cable signal through Time-Warner Cable (my apartment building can't get the Dish either) and TWC has been in a rates dispute with the NFL about the NFL Channel for years, with no end in sight.

No big deal for tonight, but it'll be a big deal once the season starts and there's a Thursday game every week.

Grrrrrrr........

I know, right? Nothing against either of those teams, in fact I kinda like them both, but it's crazy how excited I am to watch any football at all, lol.

I suppose, but NFL Network has the Jets game next Friday and they'll be on them all next week. I thought they might spend some time on the Saints organization tonight, but I guess the other is easier.

I don't care if the Indianapolis Horse-Vaginas are facing the Tennessee Limp-Dongs and Houston whacks it in the corner over the one good year they have had in the last decade.

There's glory in the legends of this hard-muscle life
and there's poetry in each season, made of sweat and strife
But now's the time to work and strain
At a game that a sport that tests the spirit and challenges the brain
One strains with many on summer's green field
Time to strive, to dare, for all not to yield.
The palms of your hands will thicken
The skin of your cheek will tan
You'll grow ragged and weary and wet
But you must do the best you can
Do you fear the force of the wind
the slash of the rain?
Go face them and fight them
Be savage again

If everything times out right tonight, the Saints and Cardinals should be putting in their 4th string walk-ons from Mount Union at about the same time that Breaking Bad comes on, thus allowing me to turn off the game without having to give the slightest remnant of a sh*t.

What you really need for calibrating the Delhomme meter is a pic of Jake with rotating googly eyes.

If you want the preseason games, you can pay $20 to watch all the preseason games (including the ones in your area) live on NFL.com

I feel like this could be useful for general purposes.

/also, I'm sorry, but I still kinda have a little crush on Drew Brees, lol

I really don't understand why, on a weekend, they still have the wrap-up shows. Like the vast majority of people weren't already home all day watching....
