I mowed the yard yesterday, something I have always hated doing for some reason, and afterwards, my physical exhaustion combined perfectly with the fact that it was a good day to watch college football.I waited patiently while Jody watched America's Next Top Model, and then being the wonderful wife she is, unprompted, she turned it over to Fox for Major League Baseball. I waited a sufficient amount of time to notice that she did this just for me (read: she wasn't watching it at all), then I asked for the remote control. This is when she made the fateful decision to grant me the remote, and from that point on it was college football.
I enjoyed greatly the entirety of the Oregon/Michigan game. The Michigan disaster of a season is simply amazing. Then, I employed my rather impressive remote control skills, flipping skillfully back and forth between several games: Notre Dame/Penn State, South Carolina/Georgia, and Texas/TCU. When these games finished, I moved right into LSU/Virginia Tech and Auburn/South Florida.
I did stop long enough to eat supper and go to the bathroom, but that was about it...
I don't know that it's good to spend the bulk of an entire day watching college football, but it sure felt good yesterday.
