Never Mind the Hype


 The NFL Draft for the 2023 season is over with and now it's time to move along and let the 32 NFL teams get ready for the next season. 

 

Never mind the hype. 

 

It gets old (at least to some it does) about all the what ifs and so on about which rookie player will do what once the next NFL season kicks off in September. Sure, it can be fun to anticipate all the players and the networks (ESPN, NFL Network, etc.) can sell all kinds of air time and make gobs of money, but what really matters is how the teams will do once the action begins. 

Never mind the hype. 

Games are not won on paper and never will be. The action on the playing field is where it all happens and that's the bottom line. The games are won and lost on the playing field. 

Until the teams begin training camp in July, it's about the NBA  and NHL playoffs and the Major League Baseball season for this sports fan. 

As for the NFL, wake me up and let me know where things are at in mid July.
