Cruel and unusual punishment is the way I’d describe the second weekend in a row in which I must watch an entire day of games before my favorite team opens its season the following night. Last weekend it was Notre Dame kicking off on Sunday (bizarre) and tonight it’s the Washington you-know-whos opening the 46th season of Monday Night Football.
For what it’s worth yesterday’s NFL action was amazing, of course, with 10 of 13 games being decided by a touchdown or less. Tonight, though, I could care less whether it’s a good game, just a winning game.
People around here be real crabby when the ’skins lose.
