You Don’t Say, Pffft 🖕🏼: Sunday Chasm Etc. Etc.

A very good evening to everyone, fellow dwellers of The Chasm: the time between the preseason and the season. It sucks and was not always thus. It used to be that preseason ended, teams reduced rosters to 53 players in the next few days, and DB Chris Conte suited up for some team who clearly overestimated him for next Sunday’s Week 1 game.

Now, two years later? The Chasm spans two whole Sundays. Which, for me, is the National Football Lee transparently toying with fans’ emotions. The Lee, I feel, is putting the moves of a sensual and savvy crush: imposing new and waaay restrictive conditions to further an agenda—in the NFL’s case, an 18-game regular season. And when it happens, guess what: The Chasm is filled by regular season games, making the prior imposition feel like a reward earned through withholding. This, I think, is further proof that, when you have absolute power, wielding that power arbitrarily is a most precious luxury that only idiots bypass “because I’m a good person” or worse fuckheadedness. Why even strive for plenary powers if yer gonna exercise ‘em prudently?

Sorry, I didn’t mean to interrupt myself with a reaction.

With apologies,

Lowratio league starts drafting in less than an hour, so gotta divert my attention to failing in a different endeavoUr.

/checks to see if fishing for compliments worked.

Tch. You’re a buncha bastards. Nevertheless, here.

FINALLY,

I got some complaints about some chalk talk that’s waaay off, in my view. First, the Kansas City Chiefs: yeah, they gonna win the division. That’s not one of my gripes.

-The Niners are getting a lot of pop to win the NFC West, and even go to the Owl. I disagree. 2025 has shown itself as being a Gemini Year, so I’d say the Arizona Cardinals are a likelier division winner.

-As to the NFL South Divisions, The Onion said it best 25 years ago.

-And finally finally: regarding rookie QB, 2025 #1 pick Cameron Ward… Yeah, I gotta ponder that one a bit more. I’m going into my room now.

/pushes door, walks through, closes.
