Some fun pre-game reading material

Every year, Deadspin puts together an NFL season preview series called “Why Your Team Sucks.” Rather talking about playoff potential, key storylines, and so forth, Deadspin looks to go as negative as humanly possible.

  • On Levi’s Stadium: “you still play your games in a Tefal skillet”
  • On Kyle Shanahan and Jed York: “This whole organization is like an after-school club for nepotism.
