Most Boring Time of the Year – Until Now!

May 22 – June 4, 2006

If you’re like me, you can agree that the entire month of May is time to relax, do some spring cleaning, prepare for that upcoming Memorial Day barbeque, and sit out on the lawn chair drinking in the fact that there is absolutely NOTHING going on in the world of college football.

Finally, May is now over and we are all ready to explode like it’s the last day of school.  What do we get to quench our thirst for football?  We get inundated with the perennial flood of “trust-us-we-know-what-will-happen-this-year” magazines hitting the shelves this week.  Yes, it’s the month of preseason college football annuals, and no one is more excited than I am.

I have to start off by saying it is nice to know what being “healthy” feels like again after spending last week confined in bed with a 102-degree fever and the flu.  Dining on nothing but Gatorade and chicken noodle soup is not what it is all cracked up to be.  Now I have regained my full cognitive thought giving me the ability to author articles that feature not only my opinion, but statements I deem to be unequivocally correct.  Since this is my first article and we are just beginning to get to know each other, I figured I would touch on the teams I grew up watching…lose.
