Are You Ready?

"It doesn't get any better than this! My first grandchild, Cole Daniel, was born Thursday, Sept. 3, 2009 just one week before the NFL season offically kicks off. He came just in time to watch his first football season with grandpa. We are both ready to go!


Nine teams are giving birth to new eras in their history with brand new coaches this season. It will be interesting to see how long it will take some of these guys to begin to have great success in turning things around. Jim Caldwell has big shoes to fill in Indianapolis replacing legendary nice guy Tony Dungy. On the other hand, Jim Schwartz, has nowhere to take my Detroit Lions but up. (Look for the Lions to have a victory early on.)



From rookie coaches to rookie players many youngsters have made huge impacts in the preseason. Top pick Matthew Stafford has shown flashes of why he might be ready to start right away in Detroit but he has also had moments where he looks like he's not quite ready. The Jets have already named rookie Mark Sanchez their starting quarterback. With rookie coach Rex Ryan at the helm it is a new beginning for the New York Football Jets.


It is definitely going to be an exciting NFL season and I am super excited about the NFL Shop on QVC. We have fresh products in all 32 teams to make sure you have the gear you need to have the best gridiron season ever! I hope you will join me for our offical kickoff of the NFL Shop Monday, Sept. 7 at 7pm. From watches to throws to jackets we will have the officially licensed gear for you on QVC-The official TV Retailer of the NFL! Look a fantasic value on a throw in your team's colors this coming Monday and I'll see you every Monday night just before the Monday Night Football Game of the week!
