Finally.
The regular season is here.
The exhaustive doldrums of the offseason have finally concluded.
NFL free agency: Bought and paid for.
Spring practices: Conducted.
Training camp: Performed.
Fake football games (some insist on calling the “preseason”): Played.
Rosters: Built.
Fantasy teams: Drafted.
This offseason felt like an eternity.
