A return of the annual column about my emotions during College Football’s first week. A word of warning: I will be talking about Appalachian State in this article.

Week One: The Best Match-Ups
It’s back! Here are my tips for the first games of the new college football season…
After Michigan and Ohio State were thumped in the Big Ten’s biggest bowl appearances earlier this year, conference fans are certainly quieter than they used to be. It used to be the case that no-one gets through the Big Ten season unscathed, and yet Ohio State have managed it twice in a decade. If the Big Ten finally lives up to its reputation and the teams start beating each other in the way that the SEC teams do week in, week out, then it should bring it back from the shadows of good ol’ Southern football.

Southern Football Y’all!!
Bruising, passionate football. The smell of bourbon in the air. Pretty sorority girls. Drunk frat boys who don’t know what day it is. And hedges. Lots of hedges. It must be the SEC.
Now the whole Barry Bonds lovefest is over, what do we do?
I don’t know if ESPN gave you the impression that the 2007 baseball season was all about Barry Bonds, but it certainly gave me it. I live in the UK, where you can only watch one or two games a day – and one of them – almost every day of the week – were the San Francisco Giants.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s great watching Bonds intimidate pitchers. And whether he’s juiced or not, seeing a home run from the San Francisco leftfielder is pretty big thing to watch. But having to watch Ryan Klesko (who last hit .300 in 2002 and last hit over over 20 homers in 2003) day after day – twinned with the Giants bullpen and the non-stop Barry conversation, is really beginning to get to me.
Heck, I’m a Yankees fan and I even had to turn the sound off to ignore Michael Kay’s constant jawing about A-Rod and Number 500.

Nascar First Half Report
Has there been a better season for NASCAR than this one? We’ve had everything – close finishes, fights, suspensions and high-profile moves, accompanied by the soundtrack of drivers whining and the screech of cars prior to the crash.

I’ve been to Beaver Stadium in the middle of a 25,000 “White Out”, I’ve stood with 8,000 soccer fans on the road in a crappy Northern town and seen them get promoted, and I witnessed David Wells throw a perfect game. But I have never experienced a day like the one I experienced in October 2003.
