by marcello on Aug 4, 2008 9:28 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I secretly am too

but I was SO optimistic about last year, and that just completely destroyed my ability to be optimisitic.

I really think Alex is a good QB, but I’m not confident he’ll grasp the offense quickly. I think the defense is really going to be quite good, but I’m just not sure the offense will get it going early enough to make something out of the season. It should be more fun to watch than last year, though.
