A blogger is born

This being my first blog and post let me give you a little background on how I ended up here at 2 am on a wednesday night- I'm not a computer guy, but a sometimes over-opinionated personality and an iMac got me here. And of course my love for college football landed me here. Let me explain for a minute-

I love sports and will do anything I can to watch my teams and follow the latest news. Let me give you an example:

My wife and I recently took a trip to Italy. My college football team (to be named shortly) was playing two games while we were on the trip. The first game against Wyoming was being played while we were over 20,000 feet up and crossing the Atlantic. I was unable to watch it, but as soon as we arrived in Milan I pulled out my phone and paid over $1 per minute to get on the web and check out the highlights and scores. That added up quick, but well worth the fees and dirty looks from my wife.

The second game played was against Oregon State and at that time we were in Rome. Thats an 8 hour time difference. That meant getting up at about 3 am to watch the game. No question about it, it had to be done. I set my alarm, got on my phone, and sat in the hotel lobby half awake staring at a delayed gamecast. My team went on to win but I ended up losing having only 3 hours of sleep. Once again, well worth it.

Now that team that I love..has a Bronco for a mascot, the longest winning streak in the nation, and plays on a blue field. Yes, thats Boise State. If you're not a fan don't stop reading. That is my team, but I enjoy watching all teams and good games regardless of the conference they play for. This blog is the place where I will share more publicly and hopefully reach more readers my opinion and perspective in the college football debate.
