IT'S FOOTBALL TIME IN TENNESSEE!!!

Well, the game isn't technically IN Tennessee (and neither are we!) but the Vols season opener is tonight at UCLA. We have been counting down the days and proudly wearing Tennessee orange all weekend.

In honor of the day, here's a little football funny that my mother-in-law Cheryl sent me several years seasons ago:

Football FINALLY makes sense.......... A guy took his blonde girlfriend to her first football game. They had great seats right behind their team's bench. After the game, he asked her how she liked the experience.

"Oh, I really liked it," she replied, "especially the tight pants and all the big muscles, but I just couldn't understand why they were killing each other over 25 cents."

Dumbfounded, her date asked, "What do you mean?"

"Well, they flipped a coin, one team got it and then for the rest of the game, all they kept screaming was: 'Get the quarter back! Get the quarter back!' I'm like...Helloooooo? It's only 25 cents!!!!"
