Two more days and the 2011 Season Begins .
Has the Lockout muddled our die-hard fans’ hearts ?
Or have we missed football so much that this weekend’s games will reignite our passion for AMERICA’S GAME ?
From March 2011 thru July 2011, no football .
No mini-camps .
No trades .
No signings .
Just constant bickering between players and owners .
Finally , a last minute agreement .
Then training camp came and went .
No excitement .
In fact , every year we go to Training Camp for a day .
This year we skipped out .
4 Preseason games .
No excitement .
Every year , the Houston Texans and Dallas Cowboys play in the Preseason .
However, this year no game was scheduled .
Every year, the first regular season game starts a week of rituals leading up to the game .
No excitement .
No rituals .
Tonight is Friday night .
Sunday night is the big game .
Regular Season opener vs the New York Jets .
Jets favored by 4 1/2 points.
10th Anniversary of 9/11 .
The stakes couldn’t be higher .
Come Monday morning , when I wake up , I will know if me and football are partners again .
