Holy crap! Are You Ready?

With all of the excitement of the Olympics, I completely missed the fact that as of today, it's football season! (insert obligatory Bugs Bunny/Daffy Duck wabbit/duck season joke here)

That's right, it's Hall of Fame weekend. And that means the annual Hall of Fame game was played. Arizona vs New Orleans. Who won? Who cares?

The absolute highlight of the night was colour man Mike Mayock singing "Play that funky music white boy" from beginning to end with 8 minutes left in the 4th quarter.

Gotta get used to some new things this year.... replacement refs for one, and I've heard rumours of a new QB in Denver. Anybody else hear about that?

And another thing, anybody bust any of this Inception stuff??? It's pretty sweet.

Go Cowboys!

Peyton Manning's 2010 salary - $14,000,000

Donovan McNabb's 2010 salary - $25,000,000
I wonder if the guy who made that decision for Philly still has his job?

No imagination??? Or too much?

While rummaging through a few boxes of football to find some Jets to send out as part of a trade... I found a Game Used card of Peyton Manning. (Yeah, I know. Peyton/Jets??? I am terribly unorganized. But this will change! Soon. Probably. Well, maybe...)
Back on topic. What's so unusual about a Game Used Peyton Manning card? Follow me this. Take a look at it. Read it. I know the foil didn't scan well, but give it a shot.
Yep. That's right. A Game Used Goal Post Cover card of Peyton Manning. Have we already ran out of jerseys, pants, socks and jocks that we need to start using stuff like this???????
Seriously? Take a lesson Topps and Upper Deck... I stopped collecting for 13 years because of the crap that was going on. Don't make me do it again.

Now the real question..... How the hell did I get this card in the first place?
