FOOTBALL

Could someone please explain to me why we start the football season in mid-August?  I know, I know it's not the real season, but for spectators, only the losers take any solace in it being the pre-season.  This judging by the extremely partisan crowds gathered around the local TVs.

Let's face it the real football season ends too soon - usually at the end of January and then we have the abysmal prospect of some game played by seven-foot tall black men pushing a ball through a hoop over and over again, and again.  The alternative - some game with angry white men sliding around on ice beating each other up with sticks.  Come February, no wonder we're gasping for baseball to start up its spring training.

No one has yet to explain why we cannot have a football season that starts say in mid October and goes through until March.  The prospect of games in Green Bay in mid-February is fascinating!
