It's really sad to see something like this just before the season starts.

Also, since we're on the subject of college football, on a lighter note, we're also planning a giveaway where you can win a copy of “EA Sports College Football 25,” so stay tuned.

I found out that my PS5 will arrive a day early (tomorrow).

I'm taking this week off completely. I'm literally only going to do the bare minimum of work (paid work), LOL! EA Sports College Football 25 has arrived!

And I'm thinking… should I gift a copy to celebrate?
