football — I just don’t feel any sort of emotion toward the game or one team in particular. Aside from the rare occasion when I’m writing about it, football takes up no space in my brain, and everything I know about it l I have learned by accident, through overhearing conversations or ingesting pop culture adjacent to the sport. For a while last year I knew exactly who was in the Taylor Swift box for every Kansas City game, but I couldn’t tell you what a third down means.”
