By now I’m sure you’ve heard all about today’s once-in-a-lifetime solar eclipse.
Sure, they happen all over the world and pretty frequently at that. But what makes this one special (at least for those of us in the US), is that it’s the first eclipse in 99 years to have the path of totality — that is the area where viewers will see the sun completely blocked by the moon — cross from the west coast to the east coast.
But while the nerd in me is absolutely fascinated, that’s not what we’re here for. We’re here to talk football.
