I think the ‘25/26 Nashville Predators are an amazing case study of how athletes don’t tank, even when the organisation, the fans, the press etc want it

“Oh but IndyCar makes bad decisions all the time why are you surprised” because there’s levels between stuff like dropping Watkins Glen from the calendar or the 25/8 rule and Actual Factual Sportswashing In Our Own Home
I was happier when it was the same 900,000 people watching IndyCar every week before #they had to insert themselves

Dwelling on all this felt terrible. I went to the doctor and I said "please help me, these events have left me feeling down." The doctor told me, "Laughter is the best medicine! Go see O'Connell the Clown! He'll cheer you up – he's exquisitely funny, and he'll cure all that ails you!"

In the grand scheme of things, covering a sports car race is a pretty frivolous story to tell, but this is the hand I’m dealt, and I’m gonna enjoy it all the way to the finish
