Are You Ready for Some Football

Sweet sweet football, how I’ve missed thee.

Thank God for the beginning of football season, effectively ending the baseball season as far as I’m concerned. The only thing keeping me remotely interested in baseball this year was my fantasy team, but it looks like I’m destined to finish that in fifth, or maybe fourth, but out of the money either way.

Could the Cubs possibly suck any more? This season has been horrible, even by their pathetic standards. I’m going to a Cubs Fantasy Camp with my Dad this winter and I think there’s a good chance I’ll make the team.

We actually managed to organize another poker game for tonight. I heard we are expecting 15-20, but you never know how many of those will actually show up. Last time we were expecting over 20 and we got 10.

Why do the Bears have to have the late game tomorrow? I know that Bears/Packers is a big rivalry, and it will be Favre’s last home opener, and defense is going to break whatever the record is for most points scored by a defense, but still, its really inconvenient for me, and I think they should reschedule.

You see, my wife is out of town this weekend, which means I have no plans for Sunday. I was going to watch the Bears at noon and then play in the PokerStars Sunday Million Guaranteed which starts around three I believe. I’ve wanted to play in this tournament for a really long time, but I’m never available on Sundays.

Now I’m going to have to either choose between the Bears or the tournament, or bring a TV up to my office and do both. Somehow I think watching a football game while playing the most expensive tournament I’ve ever entered is very +EV. I’ll have to see how I feel tomorrow I guess.
