Spring Football

I've never been a big fan of football in May. What's the point? You are still 5-6 months away from the start of the real season. With all that being said, I did attend the Kansas State spring football game on Saturday. It wasn't a big turnout that you would expect at a place like Ohio State or LSU, but it was okay. It was pretty tough to get super excited about the game, considering nobody wore names on their jerseys and I don't follow KState football much. That and the fact that half of the players switched sides several times during the game. I realize this is just a public scrimmage for fans to get excited about their teams, but why make it public? Keep us in suspense. Plus, do you really want to watch an organized practice for 3 hours? It was only $5, but I don't see what all the fuss is about. We will still hear plenty about our favorite team between now and September. The media coverage is getting pretty out of control. Next thing you know, players will start blogging about playing in spring football games. Geez, what is the world coming to.
