Getting my football fix

The Corner News
published July 11, 2008

Since July is such a trying month for us football fans, I thought I’d let you in on what I’ve stumbled upon. CBS has a college sports channel that has been giving me my college football fix, along with CSS of course. The CBS channel is 320 on Charter Digital if you’re wondering. First off, I wouldn’t have found this if it wasn’t for our good friend Cecil “Shakes” McFly.
Now between CSS, who replayed the 2006 Auburn-LSU game the other day and CBS College Sports whose running this years SEC Football and Basketball Championships all this week I’m able to get my football fix. Yeah, I already know the outcome of the game and most people would say it’s pointless to watch them, I just can’t help. While this is a horrible analogy, (I’m just trying to get my point across) it’s like a junkie and their drug of choice. They do it because it feels good to them and a good college football game is the same to me. (Okay I know that’s horrible and I’m in no way trying to relate my obsession with college football to drug use, but it sure explains my point well.) I can watch a game repeatedly and it still won’t get old to me.
Just for the sake of arguments, here’s a couple of games that I have watch repeatedly, i.e. at least 10 times or more, and I can still watch them without losing interest. Auburn-Georgia (04,05), Auburn-Alabama(05,06), Auburn-LSU(04,05,06), Alabama-Miss St.(07)*, Alabama-Tenn (04) for obvious reasons, Auburn-Fla (06,07)- I actually have these on tape even. Sad, but boy were they good games. And thanks to CBS College Sports, I’m officially a fan of the Army-Navy game. I watched several of them last week when they had Service Academy Week running in honor of the 4th of July. Not as intense as an SEC Rivalry game but they get into it.
Okay so I know I went off on a little tangent, but I said all that to say this. If you need you college football fix and the start of summer workouts and recruiting news doesn’t really do it for you. Between CBS College Sports and CSS, you can get you football at least twice a week.

*My cousin the Alabama fan recorded this one (HA!) And I enjoyed this game immensely because I am and will always be a fan of Sylvester Croom, even though he came into Jordan-Hare last year and handed Auburn their butts.
