Brent: You thought this kid had all the adversity he could handle when he opened up that six-pack of tube socks from his Aunt Lucille.

 

Kirk: Well, it’s all in how he recovers from here.  If he can get a G.I. Joe Hovercraft here and maybe a Castle Grayskull along with some other gifts he asked Santa for, he may be able to turn this thing around.  He usually saves the biggest presents for last, so maybe there’s some hope for this kid to bounce back from this.

 

Brent: Let’s hope so, the young man’s parents are watching. For more on this, let’s go down to the sidelines with our own Jack Arute.

 

Jack: Things do not look good from down here, guys. This young man obviously made a carefully planned out list for Santa in which a sweater never had a remote chance of being included, but here it is plain as day.  It appears to be a plaid turtleneck.  Wow.  You could see the disappointment and disgust on his face.  This is last year’s footie pajamas and green corduroy pants incident all over again fellas.

 

But I digress.

 

My point is, this is the absolute worst time of year for a fanatic.  It’s enough to make someone insert the ABC broadcast team into his holiday memories.

 

So this is where we get back to the beginning of this column and where I turn all of you against me.

 

I, a rabid LSU fan, am not waiting anxiously for all the preseason magazines.  I’m not nervously counting down the minutes until the first “ESPN College Gameday.”  Although I love football season, it will get here in due time.

 

I don’t need college football season to get here in a hurry because my team won it all.

 

Pause for jeers, boos, and insults.
