I'd give so much for a football right now. I miss it so much!
Yeah it's the slowest time of the year for sports right now, even with Wimbledon and Olympics coming up, at least the summer blockbusters are getting into full swing soon.

The Olympics are the only saving grace for me, I love the Olympics. Now that basketball season is over, it's a HUGE down time for sports.
Maurice Jones-Drew believes he could catch Emmitt Smith as the NFL's all-time leading rusher.
"Yeah, I think it's doable," Jones-Drew said in a Tuesday radio interview. "I definitely think it's doable." MJD is, of course, stumping for a new contract. His career 6,854 rushing yards are 11,501 behind Smith's record 18,355. Jones-Drew rushed for a league leading 1,606 yards in 2011, but wouldn't catch Smith even if he averaged that total for the next seven seasons. MJD would need a new pair of knees for that to happen.
