Pumped!

My favorite time of year without a doubt. College football, Pro Football, MLB stretch run and nicer weather

Add to that the start of the Premier League, hockey season practices and soon the season itself, and the conditioning season for skiers (road biking, core training and weights). My favorite time of the year if you neglect the Lauberhorn and Hahnenkamm weeks of the winter.

No offense...but that's a list of "stuff Shaky doesn't care about". Lol.

Yeah, I get that. Sad, you should. How do you feel about exercise in general once the college days are done? One of my good friends was an All East middle linebacker for UConn. Also Yankee Conference pole vault champion (his son was the Big East champion) and he preaches lifetime recreational skills. Fantastic skier, great whitewater kayaker. You should get out of your comfort zone is a good philosophy.

This thread is about week one college football games..not sure your humble brags are on topic.

Not to mention stupid soccer.

Yeah, well apologies. But two previous posters had posted why they like the season. Guess I got carried away by that topic. Sorry if you took them as brags. That wasn't the intent. Guess I should have read the room better.

 

[BlueandOG]

I am psyched for college football BUT if we tank against Holy Cross my Saturday will be ruined.

 

[ZooCougar]

Ahh yes the marching band guy bashing a sport. What a sick burn.

Aaaand cue the scarf-wearing cosplay crowd. Never fails.
Point still stands - who cares about EPL in a thread about CFB week 1, if anyone cares at all.

Ahh ... I think I know you, don't I? Did I ever coach you ... in soccer? And if so, you are trolling us tongue in cheek. Well played, but notice that I did not rise to the bait.

Oh, and sorry you didn't enjoy soccer more.

 

[Tdaley]

App State looks pretty good tonight.

 

[WestCoastHusky]

App State looks pretty good tonight.

Even Buffalo is up 38-0. Any of these coaches would be a huge upgrade over what we got.

Is UCF actually going to play? I'm a big Gus fan and wanted to see what he has cooking in Orlando

[Vowelguy]

How is Joel Klatt considered an A team announcer? Couldn’t Fox hire the 3rd or 4th string guy from ESPN?

 

[JMick]

that was one of the worst throws I've ever seen

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

Watching Boise ....it's amazing that no matter what coach they put out a solid team. Crappy conference...bad recruiting area.

I know they take kids that are academically challenged and JUCo. But damn...they are impressive year after year.

Why I think B12 should be strongly considering them. They are a good brand. I'd watch them over many P5 teams.
