This love affair of mine

It started in 1985. It started with Walter Payton, the Fridge, and Jim McMahon. Then along came Brett Favre. Throughout the years, it's been Deion Sanders, Donovan McNabb and, yes, even Sexy Rexy.

Football season officially started this past Thursday, and my heart is full again. Oh, sure, I spent my time during the offseason watching the Cubs, going to the beach, and putzing around the house. But I kept counting the days until my Sunday afternoons would once again be filled with joy. And finally, that time has come. Time to stock up on the chips and diet coke, make sure my jersey is clean and my Bears blanket (gotta support the home team - until they play my Packers!)is soft and fresh smelling and order a new Packer's shirt and hat (which I just did thank you nfl.com). Thank you, NFL. Life makes sense again.
