Disclaimers

I figured that if I'm going to be posting all my deep, personal thoughts about football on the interweb I should offer a few disclaimers. It's not for legal reasons, as I don't even think anyone is reading this or wants to sue me (yet). It's more about being fancy & appearing legitimate.

Disclaimer #1: I'm not a journalist, aspiring writer, or aspiring reality TV star. I can't even write good! Please ignore any and all gross grammatical errors. I will run the spell check and I will attempt to spell all players' names correctly. Unless I say otherwise, most of my facts will come from either ESPN, Wikipedia, or the NFL. There will be no footnotes or citations. (Now that I've given the disclaimer it can't be called plagiarizing :-p)

Disclaimer #2: There is no possible way that I can watch every football game. I love TV, in fact I'm totally addicted to it. But I'm too cheap to subscribe to any cable package that allows me to watch every game at home and I can't spend every single Sunday in a bar because I need sunlight to live. I will be relying heavily on ESPN (pregame shows & SportsCenter) to help me fill in the gaps.

Disclaimer #3: I will trash talk. Not because I want to hurt people's feelings or I have an anger management problem, but because it's an important part of watching professional sports. Plus it's easier to be a smart ass when you have the anonymity of the Internet. I apologize in advance to my parents for the use of any bad words and will keep it to a minimum.

I think 3 Disclaimers is a good starting point. As I rise to the top of the blogosphere I'm sure additional disclaimers will be required.
