After 7 months, life has begun again. Forget hyperbole. Shakespeare said that the play is the thing. The game is the thing.

Below is my 60 second introduction on You Tube to the 2008 NFL Season.

NFL 2008

With that, here is the recap of the first week of the 2008 NFL season.

Washington Redskins @ New York Giants–The opening Thursday night game was a celebration of the defending champion Giants. Jim Zorn made his debut as Head Coach of the Redskins. This came was typical New York Giant football, which has for the last half of a century consisted of boring offense, hard nosed running, and stifling defense. Winning ugly is the tradition, even for Superbowl winners. The Giants scored a touchdown on an opening 11 play, 84yard drive, and the defense then went into lockdown mode. Field goals were all the G-Men could muster afterwards, but it was more than enough. 16-7 Giants
