My Internet experience is an unusual one.
As the editor-in-chief of the most prestigious football outlet in a state that cares about football more than any other, I'm no stranger to online criticism. That's no bellyache — my job affords me extraordinary perks, not the least of which is that I get to think about football all day every day — but rather a fact. And with millions of passionate football fans consuming our content (more than ever before in 2025, thanks to you), I've grown accustomed to that passion spilling into my e-mail inbox, my Twitter mentions, and various message board comments.
