Super-Fan

Could it be that we're already ready for another weekend filled with college football games? Why, yes it could!

I don't know about you, but week 1 was EXCITING! And a little stressful for quite a few fans.
I often have friends joke on me about being a college football "super-fan." I am Super, and I am a fan so I can't really disagree. I also do crazy things like become an ESPN-insider for 3 months so I can be knowledgable on everything about the season, check espn.com on an hourly basis and watch pretty much every game throughout the weekend. I thought no one could top me. But this weekend, I was proved wrong.

My friend Lane is a huge Georgia fan and for some reason unknown to many of us, ABC ran the Michigan/Western Michigan game instead of Georgia vs. Oklahoma State on Saturday. I know, the former Capital of the Confederacy ran the Michgan game. Weird. We couldn't really understand it. Lane was bummed, that's for sure. After a short search with her Comcast remote, she learned she could purchase the entire college football season for a minimal (okay, semi-minimal) fee. And you know what? She did it. She ordered the entire college football package on Comcast. She now has access to every game of the season, so she's not only a super-fan, but she's now my Idol.

Lane, I'll see you Saturday!

Natalie-for the record, I think we need to include that even after I was willing to pay for the channels, Comcast could not get their signals to work so the game was never broadcast...I'm changing my cable service as soon as possible.

Wasn't it Central Michigan vs. Michigan State? Making it even MORE appalling?
