So Short A Season - a list by hanahula

Options for This Page

About this list:

While the professional baseball season continues throughout more than a half of any given year and you can catch a game on any night of the week, football has a much less face time. Perhaps that is a good thing for the players' bodies, but it can be a bit frustrating for those die-hard fans who wait all week for the one game their team will play. The season is short enough to keep the fans hungry. Very hungry.

Qualifications:

My high school biology teacher was the football coach.

Jets Authentic Brett Favre Green Jersey

First to recommend

Description

It's official. The New York Jets are now blessed with the talent and experience of former Green Bay Packers quarterback, Brett Favre. As someone who has sat through bitterly cold and damp weather to watch the Jets lose, I would be thrilled to see them have a good, if not a great, season.

Duke University Collection of Gifts: Duke Mini Football

First to recommend

Description

Okay, so we are not Notre Dame. But, thanks to new head coach David Cutliffe, Duke has managed to beat both Navy and Virginia so far this season. Maybe you won't make it your main football course, but perhaps you'll want to watch a little bit of Duke for dessert.

Before you buy any additional beer glasses, be sure to peruse this article by the aficionados of "Beer Advocate". Who knew that an American Wild Ale is best served in a glass entirely different from that appropriate for a Belgian Ale? Well, maybe you did. But you can still get a year's subscription for $24.99. Beer on tap? Game on. (via Beer Advocate)

NFL Shop: New England Patriots Women's Denim Jeans by Touch By Alyssa Milano

First to recommend

Description

Okay, so not a fabulous start to the season with the crushing blow to Tom Brady's knee. And the Patriots' don't have the same glowing, undefeated record as they did in 2007-2008 . . . but they are holding their own and still very much in the running. Keep your hats on Patriots fans; the best may be yet to come !

Ticket Stub Diary

28 people recommended this item

Description

Along with all of those vintage (or simply somewhat aged) concert and theater t-shirts you are saving, you might also want a place to stow all of those ticket stubs. They might inspire you to write a story about your adventures, or simply share some of your good memories with your friends and family. Anyone with whom you have shared great movie, theatre or athletic events would appreciate getting a diary filled with a few special stubs as a birthday, graduation or congratulatory gift.
