Tom Brady's Left Knee


Something about the start of football season gets me pumped.  All it takes is a little crisp fall air and the smell of stale beer turns me into a smack talking feisty fan.  I dig out my lucky tee-shirt, sox, tiara (laugh all you want I swear it works) and post the college and NFL schedules on my fridge.  Sure I love the game for all the right reason.  The trick plays, the massive displays of testosterone, that no f*****g way pass that wins it as the clock runs out.  

But I also have a huge soft spot for a certain Pats QB in his tight white pants.  I'm like a squealing pre-pubescent girl at an NSYNC concert every time he gets a close up shot.  So this Saturday when Tom fell to the field clutching his leg a seasons worth of ogling brilliantly flashed in front of my eyes and went dark. Oh my tender heart.

This year I guess I'm just in it for the love of the game.  No ulterior motives for me.  Except perhaps a sideline shot or two of the gracefully recovering TB.
