Are you ready for some football?

I love football. Don't invite me somewhere during a Badger or Packer game, unless you plan on watching it with your full attention. And if you have tickets to a Packer game that you cannot use, I hope I'm a good enough friend that you would think to sell them to me. Because I'll go, God willing. Even if it is the coldest day of the year. I'll watch NCAA bowl games. The excitement is just crazy enough, even if I've never seen either team play. Oh, and when the NFL playoffs come around, I'll gladly spend a lazy day watching whichever teams are playing. I'll root for my team, the home team, the veteran who is playing his last season, or the underdog, whoever hits my nerve first.
I heard tonight as I was getting ready for work and ESPN was on in the background that Superbowl X was January 18th, 1976. Pittsburgh beat Dallas 21-17. I must have known, because I was born just hours later at 12:10am January 19th. I was 2 weeks late. I guess I was just waiting for a reason to arrive, and football did it.
