Another weekend of football is in the books, and those of us who are football junkies are living the dream! We have high school football under the Friday night lights, college football all day on Saturdays, and professional games on Thursday, Sundays and Mondays.

Those of you nodding your heads in agreement will love this week’s topic, because it’s all about football. But don’t you non-football fans run away!
