Intro by Yank As the last football game of the year, the Super Bowl presents a prime opportunity for reflection.

On the one hand, this game is a good reminder of why we struggledContinue reading “Super Bowl LVII”

Intro by Sam Super Bowl Weekend is here and we’ve got a good ole’ fashion gunfight set for 6:30 ET this Sunday in the wild, wild west. This matchup is shaping up to be a rootin’ tootin’ good time.
