For those of you who just crawled out from thier cave  since the Super Bowl, guess what… the NFL Draft is next week, no really it is, really some super guru analyst told me so about a bazillion times.

And so did ESPN, the world wide web,  XM Radio, the Sporting News, Sports Illustrated and just about every other media source has done daily since the big game ended.  

No more tryouts, no more pro days, no more Mel Kipper Jr (wonder what senior did to pass the time).  Unless you count the 90 some days until the real training camp opens when fans and front office personnel try to defend their teams selections. 

The NHL and NBA are entering their second seasons as in the three-month run they call the playoffs.

 ”40 games in 40 nights,”  and “this is what you play for”  along with  all the other great cliches least I forget  Playoff beards! Oh and some where baseball started up again.

With Major  League Baseball getting even with the NFL with its own 24-hour TV chanel  one really doesn’t have to wait for the real  season to begin or end.

For us fans does it get any better?  Well only if you can improve your time in the 40-yard dash to keep up with it all.

Enjoy the madness! I know I am.
