what do i tell my 5 year old son? he’s just heard the news from alexa. he’s run up to me in tears, saying “is it true, daddy? tell me it’s not true? it’s not just this season in jeopardy, it’s the very foundations of football itself. this… this… “team” can just spend with gay abandon, with wanton neglect for their peers. they can mortgage their future on a quick fix here, an up-and-coming brazilian there, and then get what’s tantamount to a slap on the wrist. i’m already struggling with my place in this end of day capitalist society, and now you’re telling me that football, purest football, is dying because of this ever.. team. i can’t even bring myself to say their name. make it make sense.”
