The playoffs start this weekend with the NFL wildcard round. Two games on Saturday and two games on Sunday to enjoy. Being a huge NFL fan, this is the perfect weekend.

playoff2My team, The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, had the worst year in a long time, so they will all be at home with their families watching the playoffs like the rest of us. It was overall a great year of football.

The end of the season sucked, when so many teams rested their starters and the Colts chose to flush their perfect season down the drain. The commissioner of the NFL, Roger Goodell, was rumored to be pissed that all these teams didn’t finish out the season with their starters. He realized, I’m sure, that the NFL is a brand after all and the fans that spend the money deserve more of a full season of real football. I’m not even a Colts fan and I was shocked they had such disregard for the fans and passed on a historic undefeated season. I hope that lack of caring about the fans brings them bad luck.

The commissioner is rumored to be working on a plan to end this “end of season rip-off” for the fans and find some way to punish the teams that pull their starters at the end of the year.

However, with that being said, it was a good year of football and I’m going to pull for the Jets. I love a great running game and a strong defense. It is my favorite form of smash mouth football and they are such underdogs. Congratulations to all the teams that made the playoffs and for the fans like me. “Let’s get it on!” Go Jets!
