Sitting down to write this piece all week genuinely felt like this:
The amount of ideas that flew into my head and quickly fell flat to me was astounding. I thought this was just a case of writer’s block and that I would find something—ANYTHING—worthwhile to write about. But then I realized something: this season—and frankly this team—is Groundhog Day.
