The Boys of Fall

Posted on 06:28 by rendy orton
Today is a glorious day.

It's the first day of the college football season.
I love football. Doesn't matter if it's two-hand touch, flag, Pop Warner, high school, college, arena league, NFL, CFL, even lingerie league (though I haven't seen either of those last two). I just love the game.

These are highly-trained amateurs, most of whom are playing purely for love of the game.
Some are working hard and obtaining an otherwise out-of-reach college degree.
But they play with heart and it's always fun to watch.

Here's wishing the best of luck to the BYU Cougars, UofU Utes, and all the rest this season.
Let the games begin!
