Spinnable Sports Your Sports, Our Spin
The long wait is over, college football is underway (How bout em’ Dawgs?!?! Btw) and NFL kicks off. In addition to the NFL starting play this week, the UEFA Champions League group play opens up across the pond. As those campaigns open up, the baseball season enters its final stage with the playoffs in view. The stakes are very high this week and only get bigger going forward.
I am trying not to jump around while writing this episode, but football returning is a true gift that we can’t take for granted. Cherish every game and cheer your team until the end because we have waited way too long for football to be played. If you have friends and/or family that don’t understand, take the time now to prepare them for the next 5 plus months,
