Farewell, oh 2007 football season - you were very good to us. You had upsets, suspense, scandal, and you even made history, both good and bad. Thank you for giving us a splendid Super Bowl. It went perfectly with my India Pale Ale and homemade hot wings (thank you, Kevin). I was disappointed not to see a perfect season by the Patriots, but in the end it seemed fitting and just, since they might be big old cheaters. Even my typical disdain for the success of New York sports teams waned a little. Maybe it's because Eli Manning seems like a nice guy (although he and Peyton will probably be in ever commercial during football '08). So, thanks again, football, for being there for me on the weekends. Maybe I'll even see you in HD next year (I can dream). But Notre Dame football 2007 - I'm glad you're gone.
Now, we will just try to survive the next 6 weeks, until March Madness sets in and baseball finally starts.
See you next year, oh noble, glorious football.

A fitting eulogy. Well spoken.
I was actually rooting for Eli and the Giants. I wanted the probably-cheating Patriots conglomerate brought down.
And it was just a good game. One of the better Super Bowls in recent memory.
I'm glad to put college football 2007 to rest as well, given a SECOND humiliating national championship defeat of the Buckeyes.
But at least we're not Notre Dame. Buh-zing!
Yay for the Manning brothers!
