NFL Season Opener

Miami is at Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh will probably win. All pro football is about is weathering the winter with something to do besides shovel snow. Tailgating and getting drunk and going inside the stadium and getting drunk, and watching it at a sports bar and getting drunk until it's safe to go back outside without being drunk. Here in Florida this is not a really big thing. But college football in a college football town is so rah-rah for anyone over the age and IQ of 30'ish that any recreational diversion which doesn't feature smallish kids running slower than their professional counterparts is welcome. Real football isn't for real men, but the cheerleaders get to show more cans. Life with more cans is good.
