When I think of the NFL's regular season FINALLY getting underway (on a Wednesday nonetheless), I picture this guitar solo in my head. Why? Because it's awesome, as is the start of the NFL season.

The Dallas Cowboys, who are either greatly underrated or greatly overrated (depending on who you listen to), will head to the Meadowlands tonight to take on the defending Super Bowl Champion NY Giants. It's no stretch of the mind to see these two teams battling for the NFC East late into the season, so both will be looking to mark their territory early.

Romo and Eli, Garrett and Coughlin... Let's get it on!
