The Football Fan’s Diet

I scored again, both a field goal and touchdown yesterday. I did give up a beer field goal. However, I think I needed to give one up—if you know what I mean. That makes 4 days in a row and the scale shows it. So this diet and healthy lifestyle for men is working. That is a good feeling, but it is going to be a long season. I know there will be challenges. However, for yesterday, I meet them. Day in and day out, if I can do that, we are going to win some ball games on the Football Fan’s Diet.

I don’t have any big plans for today, but it is Friday. Fridays are the days my Inner Fat Slob usually puts up some points and has some success of his own. Like yesterday, I can’t let my Inner Fat Slob drive the field and come away with anything other than a field goal. If I can limit my Inner Fat Slob to field goals, we are going to win some games.

As for NFL football action this week: I love divisional playoffs. Becuase my Steelers are not in it, I will be pulling for the Baltimore Ravens – to loose that is. I can’t stand that team. I can’t stand that Baltimore running back Ray Rice is named after a carbohydrate.

If you want to know who I want to win the Super Bowl this year, I am going with the Minnesota Vikings. I love heroic football stories and if Bret Favre comes away with a Lombardi, that will be pretty darn amazing. After all, a good friend of mine said to me, “How can you not love Bret Favre? He is older than us and still playing football.”

A close second favorite would be the Arizona Cardinals. I like Kurt Warner and being a Pitt Panther fan, have to pull for Larry Fitzgerald.

Now who do I like this year in the Football Fan’s Diet Super Bowl of men’s health? I like me. I like me to crush my Inner Fat Slob. Only this year, when I go to Hawaii, I will keep in mind, it is always a short offseason when it comes to health.
