I have not been paying close attention to the offseason, but I always read these posts in full, and they're always worth the investment. As someone who almost completely tunes out all sports, full stop, once football season ends -- in favor of catching up on reading and film, what I consider my two true, lifelong passions -- I mean that as the highest praise, because I really do go into hibernation mode viz. fantasy football by this point. The analytical rigor and clear passion you bring to your thinking is bracing. It's appointment reading for me and an inspirational model for how to approach work with honesty, dedication, and humility. None of us will get everything right in any future-telling endeavor, but integrity is its own reward. Thanks for rising above the noise! Just wanted to drop in this note of encouragement during the lower-trafficked periods of engagement here. Writing can be a lonely practice (I'm an editor), but you've got a loyal reader here.
