Some people may be excited about the incredible Seahawks win over the Rams, some may be disappointed in the Huskies and/or Cougars losses in college football, and a very few might be gearing up for the Sonics who started their pre-season games, all of which occured this past weekend. However, the people in the know will have started to get a little excited about one thing and one thing only. Yep, last Friday was the first day of practice for NCAA basketball teams around the country, including our very own UW Huskies.

Just over two weeks until the best sport in the universe kicks off, people! Let’s hope those 15 days are enough to allow the whole barn-load of players who are injured to heal. Mark your calendars, make reservations for your favorite sports bar barstool because the November 3rd Exhibition against St. Martin’s will be the first game of the year. [schedule]

Oops. There goes my plan to drink less beer.
