on August 5th, we have the Illustrious Arizona Cardinals playing the forever tainted New Orleans Saints in the Hall of Fame Game, the first official preseason game of football in 6 months. It’s a time to celebrate football’s newest enshrined heroes and watch some football. Only preseason football kinda sucks.

Preseason football is like the pro bowl without the fun. No one puts effort into playing (outside some lousy backups trying to stay on the roster) but it doesn’t even have the goofy playfulness that the Pro Bowl has. Nobody seems to want to be there. I’d rather do something else than watch that.
