The NFL’s Los Angeles Chargers has revealed its upcoming 2022 season football schedule in the best way possible and it’s a must-watch. Releasing a football schedule might sound boring on paper, and perhaps if you’re not the Chargers it is, but the Los Angeles-based team decided to do something we think every NFL team should do: release
In this job, I expend a lot of effort and care on things no one notices. While this is arguably a poor use of my time, I enjoy the process—and technically it is productive. But perhaps you, reader dear, might enjoy hearing about these small things, or at least find them interesting/weird. So, let’s talk

With a wholly sensical face-off between two things each week, we’ll surely soon discover the absolute best thing. Last week, you decided (barely!) that drawbacks are better than a load of lasers. I feel I should’ve

It’s one of those games that’s perfect for Game Pass, at least in its current form, but that’s going to be
