Thread: Serious Question

Is it me or is this the longest #@$@$@! offseason ever?

Watch the CFL, it isn't as good but it fills the gap.

It has gone pretty quick for me. Life has been crazy. Looking forward to getting to the end of the month to take my mind off of the real world.

It was for a while there because I had a hard time getting into The Stanley Cup or NBA Finals. Add to that the Rockies just stinking it up and there wasn't much to watch sports-wise. But now things are picking up as we head toward camp. But yeah, for a while there I just wanted to cryogenically freeze myself for a few months. The NFL is the only sport I really care about and obsess over. I pretty much listen to sports talk all day at work, read power rankings and articles, and plan my weekends around games so I can watch them. The most wonderful time of the year!

The lockout last off season was a 100 times worse for me.

The worst off-season was the year during the 1981 baseball strike. It was so bad you actually had to talk to other people just out of sheer boredom.

Seems long to me.

I had a nightmare last night. I dreamt that I turned on the television late evening, and the NFC Wildcard Saturday game was on. .. and I had missed the Broncos/Raiders Wildcard game earlier in the day.

I panicked. . .checked the DVR to see if it had recorded it, and it had, but it began playback with only 30 seconds left in the game and we were down 36-32, no timeouts, and time was winding down. We didn't score and the Raiders had won.

I couldn't figure out for the life of me how I had "forgotten" that the Broncos were playing the Raiders in the playoffs, and totally missed the game. Funnily enough, I couldn't really even remember the season taking place.

Needless to say, I woke up in a cold sweat, but I was very happy to discover it was all a bad dream.

I wouldn't have panicked at all.

There's no way the Raiders are making the playoffs.

Raiders in the playoffs? NTL, for the sake of ur wife and kids, please stop smoking bath salts.

I haven't had a footballl dream in a long time. I guess it has been a long offseason. But just a couple more weeks til the draft and then summer camp. Yippeee!!!

thew TDF gets me thru july ! this year we haVE THE OLYPICS TO AMUSE US.
when you wait for something you are reallylooking forward to, the time does seem like an eternity.
its like being a kid waITING FOR CHRISTMAS.

Just you Shooter......I can't believe how fast this summer is flying by. In 3 weeks, my sons start 2-a-days.

Dipnetting this weekend. Hoping to come home with 20+ salmon. At most 50

I spent Sat at the CFL Toronto vs Calgary game and Sunday on the beach. As much as I crave Broncos football, I am enjoying July.

This has been an interesting fishing season with the high waters and all the closings. Have fun and be safe especially from the bears!
