Okay, I’m already sick of NBA basketball and hockey being the only sports on tv in the past couple weeks. Of course we also have the ’scintillating’ hot stove baseball stories to keep us going, NOT. I think I’m going to go into a very deep depression once Super Bowl Sunday has come and gone. I don’t want to wait another 8 months for games to start up again.
Here’s a bit of what my life is all about right now: I ended up watching Australian Open tennis last night (Serena Williams vs. one of those ugly, annoying Russians). Good thing was Serena was down 7-5 after one set, but came back to win 7-5, 6-1 after that. Bad thing is, I really enjoy watching Serena, except for it’s not football, so that part sucks.

I get crap for following hockey and you’re blogging about TENNIS? No way. I’m throwing the flag on that one.
In keeping with my cynical state about the NFL, I’m not suffering the least bit from post-football funk. I’m ready for march madness, the stanley cup and baseball (especially REDS baseball… WOOO!!!)

Don’t get me wrong. I was not watching tennis in the actual sense that I was ‘loving’ it and really wanting to actually watch tennis. It was really the only thing on tv that was available at the time other than the Weather Channel. That is in direct contrast to people who watch hockey because they directly seek out a hockey game to watch on tv and like it. Big difference.
And the fact that tennis is actually a grueling test of skill and athleticism while hockey is merely just a club sport for pokes who have nothing better to do that drink beer and knock each other’s teeth out for the fun of it. LOL.
