1 more hour and American football is back

Cardinals vs Saints Hall-of-Fame game.

I'm so pumped that I may watch to the conclusion, past the first hour or so of Olympics prime time coverage. In fairness, I'm interested in the Cards QB battle, specifically Skelton and how he does.

So what is the over/under on the number of bounties the Saints will have in this game?

J/k - can't wait.

I'm ready for some Football. The biggest problem this fall is whether to the Opener (Cowboys-Ginats) or the BIG DAWG at the DNC!

"Gold Package" refers to the Green Bay Packer season ticket holders who get two home games each year. These are the tickets once thought of as the "Milwaukee games".

We usually get one division opponent and one "other". Watching the Pack whip the Bears, again, will be sweet.

13 NFL Championships. And counting.
