No, it's not Christmas. It's FOOTBALL SEASON! Time for early mornings, beer, lots of yelling, some tears, lots of arguments, jumping, jerseys, and junk food. I'm pretty excited. Although this past Sunday didn't go as I had planned (damn you, Manning), it still felt good to put my black and yellow jersey on and watch the boys on the field. Football in Hawaii is quite a different experience. Since our time zone is so behind, we have to wake up extra early to watch games. I'm talking 7 AM games on a Sunday. It's rough but so worth it. Some of the bars here serve breakfast, coffee, mimosas, bloody mary's, etc. And since Hawaii doesn't have a NFL team, there's always an array of jerseys and fans. It's different, but cool. HAPPY FOOTBALL SEASON!
