Sporting Dead Period

We have now entered what I consider the most boring sports period of the year. No more Mavs in the NBA Finals. The US team eliminated from World Cup. Stanley Cup has come and gone without the Stars even sniffing the later rounds of the playoffs. Now there's just... baseball. Ugh. Don't get me wrong, baseball is fun to attend a game, but it just doesn't do it for me watching it on tv game after game after game after game.

So... we can now officially begin the countdown to the REAL entertainment extravaganza... FOOTBALL! We're about 6 weeks away from the first NFL preseason game (Aug 6), about 10 weeks from the first regular season game (Sept 7). That means fantasy football drafts kick off somewhere in between for those of us who love geeking around with that.

Then there's my beloved Longhorns. We are 71 days from watching them open up their season (Sept 2) in their quest to defend the National Championship. I can't wait. In the mean time, let's take a peak back at their 2005 season! ;-)
