Reply #7: Except for Monday Night Football [View All]

[exboyfil]

Week 1 in the books for not watching a down of football this year (either college or pro). I made a vow this year to myself that I would not watch football this year. I did it for three reasons. The first was the silly strike in pro football. The second was seeing tuition go up at our local university while millions extra is spent on sports programs. The final reason was that it was taking too much time that could be more productively used to study and help my children with their schooling.

I go most days without turning the television on. If it was not for the wife, I would have long since dropped cable.
