Our Sunday Night Savior Is Back
Written By: Anand Bhogal
Our Sundays have just gotten a little less boring. It’s been a very, very, LONG 7 months of lockdowns, social distancing and NO contact sports. UGH! We can’t even attend our local High School football games unless you’re one of the “VIPs” the player invites to watch.
But, guess what? The NFL is back (cue large cheers and applause)! It’s been a fast paced season so far. WIth week 1 already done and week 2 underway, things have been pretty interesting with fantastic match-ups and amazing plays.

The NFL excitement goes on. Grab a football and throw it around. Writer’s note: My mom wouldn’t let me play football (you know how it goes: “Were worried about you getting hurt, breaking a bone…”) But, hey! You can’t hurt yourself on the sofa with a remote, some popcorn and lots of yelling and cheering. Check back next time for more highlights and a wrap-up of the games.
