made a big impact on us all.

I was just thinking about it a few minutes ago, how the NFL season opens this Sunday, the 11th, and the 15 year anniversary.

September 11th, 2001 was a beautiful Tuesday morning. The Sunday NFL games for the following Sunday were all postponed. Vinny Testaverde and other NY Jets players were quite vocal about postponing them. Even when the games resumed the following week, it still didn't seem right.

It was such a painful, numbing day.
