Just in case you were among those recently bemoaning a ‘quiet’ or even ‘boring’ offseason, the NFL just recently served up a couple of reminders that silence at this time of year is nearly always golden.
When it comes to down time, especially during the period between the end of the season and the start of the offseason program, or during the current period we’re now facing between minicamp and the start of training camp, I basically am hoping to be as bored as possible, from a football standpoint. I don’t want to hear about my team, because the odds are that it’s bad news.
