It’s an annual summertime tradition as rich in history as the Bristol, Rhode Island 4th of July Parade or the fireworks on the Esplanade.
Hell, with respect to Jim Nantz and The Masters, this really is a tradition unlike any other.
It’s also one that refuses to be wiped out by the coronavirus’ control of seemingly every aspect of our summer lives. Since it’s always been online, it’s always been virtual anyway. No mask needed.
Drumroll, please!
That’s right, it’s my yearly meaningless, fruitless and at times retroactively embarrassing ranking of the Patriots pre-training camp roster from 1-89.
