Let’s talk about those dreaded early starts, the 10:00 AM games. You wake up on a Sunday, and your internal clock is screaming for pancakes and a lazy morning. But the Seahawks are already in London or back east, and your couch has been calling your name since breakfast.
Suddenly, your entire morning routine is a frantic montage. You’re brushing your teeth while simultaneously checking the weather in Buffalo. It feels like you’re being asked to run a marathon before you’ve even had your second cup of coffee. It’s unnatural.
I remember one game where I was still in my pajamas, holding a half-eaten bagel, when the kickoff happened. The birds were chirping outside, and I was screaming at the TV about a holding penalty. My neighbor probably thinks I’m a lunatic. Probably right.
The Sunday Night Slump (But Make It Football)
Then, you have the polar opposite: the 8:20 PM Sunday Night Football start. This is the start time that turns you into a night owl against your will. You tell yourself you’ll sneak in a nap at 4 PM to prepare, but then you find yourself doom-scrolling on your phone until kickoff.
By the second quarter, you’ve eaten an entire bag of tortilla chips for dinner. Dinner is now a concept, not a meal. You feel a mix of excitement and the slow, creeping dread of a 7 AM alarm clock tomorrow.
It’s a solid three-and-a-half-hour commitment that feels like a mini-vacation and a hostage situation all at once. You can’t leave, you can’t turn it off, and you’re definitely not cleaning the kitchen. The house can burn down; the game is on.
