I am one week into the NFL Offseason, and I already can’t stand it. As expected, I will be joining a flag football league in March. However, I was not put on this Earth to do things and exert physical activity. I prefer relaxing on my couch and watching others do them. Heck, in college I was even one of the Vice Presidents of the “Lethargy Club.” We even had names that were takeoffs on the “Care Bears.” One friend of mine was “Lethargy Bear.” Another one was “Apathy Bear.” I was known as “F*ck it Bear,” due to my blase attitude, and lust for the ladies.
After a Saturday night that featured some friends getting drunk and singing Karaoke, I figured I could sleep until noon and then report on the Daytona 500. I accomplished the first mission, only to find out that the race had not started yet. That concludes my NASCAR report. In several hours, go to ESPN’s website to see who won.
So to feed my NFL addiction, I will be conducting a radio program with Frank of “Political Vindication Radio.”
www.politicalvindicationradio.com
The program Frank and I will be doing is called “NFL Live 2008.” It will be every Sunday at 8pm PST, 11pm EST. Frank will provide the knowledge, and I will provide…well, something I guess.
Oh, and a late breaking story involving the Daytona 500…at the inception of the race, the pole position was actually in second place. The pace car was in first place. However, like most races, as soon as the checkered flag comes down, the pace car gives up. Nobody likes a quitter. I am now anti-pace car.
Also, in another Daytona 500 human interest story, racer Jimmy Johnson is one of the only people in the history of auto racing whose first and last names are both euphemisms for male genitalia. The only other person in sports with that distinction to my knowledge was the former coach of the Dallas Cowboys, who also is named Jimmy Johnson.
Anyway, it is a beautiful day outside, so I am going to have lunch and then take a nap.
I did catch the end of the Daytona 500, with Ryan Newman stunning Tony Stewart on the last lap to win. Dale Earnhardt Jr. Finished 9th.
Tune in to Blog Talk Radio Sundays at 8pm PST…NFL Radio Live…where football season never ends.

I don’t know if it fits but I always got a good howl out of driver Dick Trickle’s name.
It almost hurts to see you going through this.
I know how you feel. I’ll be on the road for the next few weeks and my NFL addiction is in such need of a fix that I KNOW I’ll be watching the Combine wrap-ups each night in the hotel bar. Who knows maybe I’ll spot a perfect RB for my Lions to draft at #15.
Ugggh, I feel so dirty. Is there a 10 step program for this?
