Scott's thoughts: America needs college football (Scott's Thoughts)

America is the greatest country in the world. 

However, all is not well. Political tensions are high. The stock market is down. Inflation is out of control. Distrust of our government is at an all-time high. 

On the home front, Summer is coming to a close. Schools are gearing up for the return of students. Parents everywhere can almost taste the "return to routine" they know they need. 

The best news I can share is that we are mere weeks from the return of one of the few unifying, galvanizing things we have in this great country. Yes, I'm talking about college football. Now just 19 days away, college football is back and boy do we need it. 

Give me some friends sitting around talking about their Summer, cheering for their team and forgetting for a while about the problems we all deal with. America needs college football - badly. 

Let's all hope that come mid-November the largest arguments in this country involve Ryan Day's job status, Lane Kiffin's decision to go for two up six late or comparing Kalen Deboer's first season to Nick Saban's final one. 

Oh, and we have an expanded playoff to look forward to. Goodness, we need you college football. Thank you for always being there for us. 


One more thing....

For those of us over 40 - Pete Lembo's beautiful brain brought us this classic nod to the greatness that was Major League. 

For you young bucks who don't recognize greatness - pull up Major League on yo'device tonight and thank us tomorrow. "Just a bit outside..."
