BYE WEEK

It seems an oddity but I cannot deny it. The most sane week of my entire calendar is a Georgia bye week. I'm an idiot. I'm a die hard. I'm the guy that believes and defends when there is no hope and there is no defense. It will do my life and my marriage a lot of good to take a Saturday to just laugh at the nonsense. I love college football like no other spectacle. It is the pinnacle of pomp and circumstance...of team colors and fight songs...of irrational rants by fans that simply believe.

It is the best part of the year. It is quite simply...American. I love it so much it hurts.

....and to tell you the truth I need a week off. I can do my job. I can focus on life. I can return to my to-do list. I can be sane.

Let the other knuckleheads stomp, shout, and scream (to borrow a phrase). Let the pundits rant....let the douchebaggery reign supreme. Me? I'm going to laugh at it all...knowing that next week I will be among the band of fools...which I mock but for one glorious week.

Go Dogs!
