Assignment 5-1


Assignment 5-1
Football, football, football, that is all I am hearing about in my house for the past three weeks. Everyone across the United States has been sitting on pins and needles waiting to see about what is going to happen with the season.
The salary cap issue has been a big one, the final out is; per team 120 million with the stipulation that the team can take 3 million for one player and act like it is not there. Here are some teams that are over the 120 million cap are; Dallas Cowboys, Oakland Raiders, New York Giants, Pittsburgh Steelers (GO STEELERS), Minnesota Vikings, Indianapolis Colts, and Green Bay Packers (sports.espn.go.com).
We have been waiting for what feels like forever for the postseason to start. I don’t know about everyone but Sunday football is big deal in our house, there is the shopping to be done during the week and then a whole bunch of tail gating on Sunday, nothing like a football party to make it fun.
There has been so much controversy going on with during the off season concerning the lockout. Some of the teams have been working together and making sure that they are getting in some training. I know as a fan I am ready for some FOOTBALL!  
GO STEELERS!!

  1. I am not a PRO football fan I prefer college level sports, but I live in a house with all males (husband and two sons) and football or the lack of it has been the talk at my house as well. Normally while the guys watch the game, the ladies enjoy the conversation and food. Mostly we enjoy the loud yells from the guys. Either way, everyone is happy.
