Are you ready for some football?

Am I allowed to still say that?

The NFL season begins tonight with Ravens-Broncos and to get you prepared here is the entire Week 1 Announcing Schedule.  We'll also have an NFL-related podcast coming up later today so we've got all our bases covered for the season to begin.  I probably should have used a football analogy instead of a baseball analogy there.  Hmm… We'll have all of our lawsuits settled and negative stories stamped out so there's nothing to distract us from the football games this weekend.  Is that better?
