If you’re reading this in April or May, I feel your pain. You’re stuck in the limbo between “maybe I’ll clean the garage” and “nah, I’ll just watch highlights from last year.” My advice: do what I do. Watch old Grey Cup games on YouTube, argue with strangers online about who’s better between a 40-year-old quarterback and a rookie, and slowly accept that your team will probably finish 9-9 again.
Or just wait for that first June weekend when the sky turns blue, the flags unfurl, and someone yells, “First down!” like it’s the most important thing in the world. Because, for a few months, it is. Now go find your lucky jersey—it’s probably under a pile of snow boots.
