The Blonde Diaries

This part of the year is always hard for me.  Football has ended, Basketball is over (ends when the Spurs are out), and Hockey is finishing up (Go Pens!).  All that is left is baseball and with games every day, it can get pretty boring fast if you only watch it on television.  I guess that is why we all go on vacation or host barbeques and swim all summer long – to pass time and get ready for the sports seasons to start again in the fall.

If you are just dying to get ready and in the mood for Football, right now is a great time to hit the stores to pick up tailgating items. Everyone has their summer stock and outdoor gear on sale and you can find some awesome things. I registered for a fun drink dispenser in the shape of a football in my favorite team’s colors. I hope someone picks it up. You can also go ahead and get your television subscribed to Direct TV if you don’t subscribe already. Direct TV offers 100% digital programming with over 130 channels available in HD. Standard Direct TV packages begin at $30 a month with no equipment to buy or start up costs. Once your Direct TV is installed you can go ahead and pick up your subscription to the NFL Sunday Ticket. The NFL Sunday Ticket allows you to see the entire football season from the comfort of your home. You don’t have to worry about which games the local stations pick up and air because you have access to all of them on the Sunday Ticket. This package is broken into 5 payments of $55.99 each and would make an excellent Father’s Day gift for any male in your life. You also have access to player tracking and the NFL network. The special payment package is only good through July 31st so order early so you won’t miss a minute of the upcoming season!
