This is always the part of the year where I struggle the most with sports.  I like recruiting and everything, but I can’t live and breathe it or I will go insane.  I love my Atlanta Braves, but we are mired in mid-season, the All-Star Break is upon us, and let’s face it: the Braves are a traveshamockery right now.  It’s embarrassing.  I also can’t get really excited about the Olympics, although I might when it gets closer.  The most exciting things I have even seen are wide receivers doing lines off the bathroom floor at Denny’s and Paula Creamer’s score of 60.  I know she is in the LPGA gentlemen, but come on … talk to me when you break 70, much less 60.  She could totally kick all our asses, even from the real man tees.

So what is there to get excited about?  Well, my own personal Christmas is coming folks.  July/August is the Thanksgiving to my Christmas season.  Yes, that’s right, college football is just around the corner: 50 days and some change to be exact.  Which means in a month and a half, I get to wake up hungover every Saturday morning to my “presents.”  There is more coming about the upcoming football season, including some conference/team previews, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, do you have your college football tickets for the games that you want to attend this year?  Check out this site, our very first sponsor EVER!  Shouldn’t they feel honored?  Well, we are honored to have them.  The really great thing for all of you is that they are going to give Curveballs readers a 5% discount on purchases.  Just use the redemption code “CurveBalls” at the Vivid Seats site, and you get 5% off of any purchases.
