Before we get to the fun stuff, let me explain what this series is, how long it will go, and how to take part.
This is Off-Season Choose Your Own Adventure. Every now and then, I will bring choices to your table, and you will react to those choices via a poll question (I’ll leave comments open so you can explain your decision and cajole others to join your cause). Every update (including this one) will be accompanied by a story, based on the choices you have made, and by the end of the off-season, you will have a narrative that reflects those decisions.
