The NFL...

VS

This morning, while doing some cardio, I was watching ESPN. I don't really watch a lot of TV in general because I suppose I'd prefer to use my excess time browsing the internet. But it's awfully hard to browse the internet while running on an elliptical so I was tuned into Mike and Mike's Morning Show. Most of the time I was listening to music with no closed captioning; but there's always little clues to let you know what's going on, even without sound... Such as the fact that the Indiana Colts are 11-0. Hmmm. Also, that the NFL is taking a stricter stance on when players can return after receiving concussions. Hmmm. Also that the Tennessee Titans play the Colts this Sunday. Hmmm.

Now, if you've been reading my blog, you'll know that I vacation in TN every summer. I heard about that crazy murder/suicide thing with a Tennessee Titans player while I was there, and morbidly curious person that I am...it definitely piqued my interest. However, I had largely forgotten about it until today. I'm seriously considering watching the match-up between the Colts and the Titans on Sunday. But that would definitely be breaking my rule of not becoming an NFL fan. Ohhhhh the choices.

If I remember correctly, the Titans are 5-6 this year. Not a winning record...(no duh, right?) but it would be pretty freaking sweet if the Colts imploded and the Titans got the win. Likely? Probably not. Fun to think about? Yes.

So I may or may not be tuning in on Sunday, but I can feel the forces at work...soon I may actually be an NFL fan as well...
