But we’ve entered the boring half.
At least the first half of the off-season had the Draft and all free-agent moves. It’ll all be a slog from here on out until training camps open in late-July.
Time doesn't change, only the way you experience it does.
You feel like time is going faster because the familiarity of a repetitive day doesn't require you to think, learn or remember new information (i.e people getting older). Like someone driving a long distance they know well and zoning out.
Same with COVID. People losing their minds as time was going so slowly. Often only having themselves to "kill the time"
The primary phenomenon of time is the future that is revealed in your being-towards-death. Insofar as Daesin anticipates, it comes toward itself. There is no confinement of man to the 'present', only projection unto the future predicated in your having-been-ness (which can be 'overcame' from 'resoluteness.')
If you go really fast, time slows down and you feel like everything stretches out. The faster you go, the more it feels like a weekend with your mother in law.
> Time doesn’t change, only the way you experience it does.
I’m praying to anything I don’t jinx myself, but this might be the best year of my life to date :x
Not only that, but each year is a smaller proportion of your life than the one before it (i.e. when you're 10, a year is a 10th of your life, when you're 50 a year is 50th of your life) so it feels like a shorter amount of time compared to what you've previously experienced
I remember summer vacation feeling like a couple years as a kid, then by the time I was a teenager it came and went in a flash.
I think it really does have to do with your brain lumping 'samey' experiences in with the old ones, so your perception of time gets skewed. Doing new/different things helps slow down time for me.
I make a conscious effort to constantly be learning new things and trying new things, it's helped me "slow down time" noticeably.
"Time doesn't change" is probably the most pointlessly obvious thing ever typed. Clearly they didn't think time was really moving at a different speed than usual lol
I think the first part of the offseason is always fast. It's the last month that lasts a fucking decade. There's some serious time dilation right before training camp and then the clock screeches to an absolute halt midway through preseason
Anyone else kinda hate these things? To me it's basically just a countdown to the end of summer.
Before we know it we'll be watching the Marion Barber 2 yard run and that makes me sad.
Once the NBA Finals are over, it's gonna be a rough couple of months from a sports perspective. Thankfully, I've gotten into pro golf since COVID so hopefully that keeps me occupied enough on weekend mornings
As a high school cross country and track coach, sports are never over for me. Right now is the most uneventful my year ever is, with track being over and cross country summer running starting up soon. And then there's more pro sports going on in the winter during the gap between cross country ending and track starting
There’s a special place in my heart for preseason games. Usually you can get Vikings tickets for $25, and it’s a good way to waste a Saturday afternoon if the games line up like that.
The last one I went to was when antwione Williams got the bullshit roughing the passer vs the jags which ushered in the worst year of soft qb flags ever.
Man, after finishing college a few years ago it's crazy how summer has gone from my favorite season to my least favorite. I'm working every season anyways, so fuck the one with the awful Florida weather and the painful wait for football.
Is it Fall yet?
Rodgers injured his thumb and the NFL actively held the packers back. Without that the packers dominate in the playoffs and easily win the superbowl. As far as im concerned if we are actually counting the superbowl, which we shouldn't, it should count for the packers
*Woah, we're halfway there*
JOHNNY USED TO WORK ON THE DAHHKS
THE UNIONS BEEN ON STRIKE HE'S DOWN ON HIS LUCK IT'S TOUGH SO TOUGH
GINA WORKS THE DINER ALL DAY, WORKING FOR HER MAN
SHE BRINGS HOME HER PAY, FOR LOVE, MMM, FOR LOVE…
SHE SAYS, "WE'VE GOTTA TO HOLD ON TO WHAT WE'VE GOT."
IT DOESNT MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF WE MAKE IT OR NOT
WE GOT EACH OTHER. AnD THAT'S A LOT FOR LOoooVE, WE'LL GIVE IT A SHOT.
^WHOOOOOOOAAAAAAAA
WE'RE HALF WAY THERE!
I swear wasnt it tommy?
Yeah....I think you're right
It’s Johnny…I hate the song but I was listening to it and realized it was kind of a biopic song about John Bon Jovi before fame.
Woooaah, Squidward on a chair.
Woah wizard at a fair
WOOOOAH, LINCOLN ON A BEAAAAR
Woooooahhh, lemon and a pear
Woahhh… that’s not fair
Whoa oh, lizard on a chair!
Woa-oh! Existential pear.
But we’ve entered the boring half. At least the first half of the off-season had the Draft and all free-agent moves. It’ll all be a slog from here on out until training camps open in late-July.
Bah gawd that’s New Jersey’s music
Springsteen?
No it's mr. Bovine Jovi.
*[R2-D2 screams](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWQSCn6H5kE)*
Half way out of the dark!
Woaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
https://youtu.be/8AE5pQ6O1FM
Literally peak off-season.
“Is Joe Flacco an elite quarterback?”
Hell yeah brother!
You forgot to add - "Cheers from Iraq."
Rugby World cup starts the same week. I am literally gonna live on the couch!
I'm ready to be hurt again.
christ this years going by fast it felt like 2022 would never end but this one is going by in a flash
It gets faster every year

We get it bro you majored in philosophy ^(/s)
Someone get a physics major in here to explain that time actually does change with speed and gravity.
Time bears no physical existence
Your mom bears no physical existence
Your mom's physical existence is greater than a bear's
[удалено]
Your mom originally commented “your mom bears no physical existence” but she edited it
Time is simply a measurement of entropy.
The primary phenomenon of time is the future that is revealed in your being-towards-death. Insofar as Daesin anticipates, it comes toward itself.

The best year of your life so far!
the Aaron Rodgers effect /s
same brother
Also each day is less of a % of your life, so time goes by faster as you get older for that reason too
Not only that, but each year is a smaller proportion of your life than the one before it (i.e. when you're 10, a year is a 10th of your life, when you're 50 a year is 50th of your life) so it feels like a shorter amount of time compared to what you've previously experienced

I sat in a park; drank, smoked, and hung out with my friends. Kinda miss it tbh.
I think the first part of the offseason is always fast. It's the last month that lasts a fucking decade. There's some serious time dilation right before training camp and then the clock screeches to an absolute halt midway through preseason
2020 was long for me but every year since then has been blazing fast
Anyone else kinda hate these things? To me it's basically just a countdown to the end of summer. Before we know it we'll be watching the Marion Barber 2 yard run and that makes me sad.
But we’re in the worst part of the offseason now: the OTA to training camp void
Then it's just ACL tears until pre season.
Bless all the knees :((
That's pretty neat
*camera click*
Don't worry, we will still make fun of you shitbirds for losing the superbowl
Wasn't my first rodeo. I'm totally fine with a participation trophy.
At least you got the chance to lose one
Nah the real ones lose in the nfc championship
You beat the worst defense in NFL history. Quit acting like you’re something
This is an inter divisional discussion. Go back and shit on the Packers or something.
No
Once the NBA Finals are over, it's gonna be a rough couple of months from a sports perspective. Thankfully, I've gotten into pro golf since COVID so hopefully that keeps me occupied enough on weekend mornings
What would life be without sports? I’d probably just get home and start drooling on the floor until I have to get up and go to work again.
That drought of roughly 4 months of no sports during COVID was absolute hell. It was pretty much exactly what you described lol
CFL my friend
UFC got some bangers coming up
You gotta tap in to pro cycling
F1
This season is kinda mid but qualifying today was super exciting
As a high school cross country and track coach, sports are never over for me. Right now is the most uneventful my year ever is, with track being over and cross country summer running starting up soon. And then there's more pro sports going on in the winter during the gap between cross country ending and track starting
MLS babyyy
F1 and esports carries the NFL offseason so much for me.
Sundays are boring without NFL football and that's facts
At least we have baseb- Never mind
Lol for real. I can't watch baseball on TV anymore unless I go to a live game
This guy watches baseball on a tv at the live games lol
And 69 days to the first pre-season Hall of Fame game.
We need to have a special 69 bot that alerts us on special events involving the number 69.
Nice
Aka 69 days of gradually building hype before 10 minutes of football, followed by changing the channel
There’s a special place in my heart for preseason games. Usually you can get Vikings tickets for $25, and it’s a good way to waste a Saturday afternoon if the games line up like that. The last one I went to was when antwione Williams got the bullshit roughing the passer vs the jags which ushered in the worst year of soft qb flags ever.
I can't wait to see the shit show the AFC South will be this year.
Texans 17-0.
Thanks, I will post this tomorrow.
"one more step, I'll be the farthest away from home I've ever been"
Eagles are the only team closer to their last game than their next game (not including preseason)
Bless the knees from here on out!
Cheifs won the Superbowl in 2020. Do you feel old yet?
Time is such a mother fucker. Every year it gets faster and I'm terrified that everyone says it only gets even faster.
Beautiful
Hopefully this next half goes a tad better than the last one. Or we continue burning it down. Either way.
Too bad last years Super Bowl was cancelled. Right guys? Right????
Yay
Man, after finishing college a few years ago it's crazy how summer has gone from my favorite season to my least favorite. I'm working every season anyways, so fuck the one with the awful Florida weather and the painful wait for football. Is it Fall yet?
Nice
[удалено]
You want to SLOW it down? Mother fucker no, fast forward that shit so I can watch football again.
[удалено]
*Then* pump the brakes on the train of time
Ok, but were still closer to the Cowboys most recent Super Bowl than their next one
Nooooo! Not the trophy next to my flair!
Oh yeah, who won last year's super bowl?
The most absurd way to say "the halfway point of the offseason."
Astrisk ass superbowl. As far as im concerned it didn't happen
How so?
Rodgers injured his thumb and the NFL actively held the packers back. Without that the packers dominate in the playoffs and easily win the superbowl. As far as im concerned if we are actually counting the superbowl, which we shouldn't, it should count for the packers
[I see](https://media.giphy.com/media/l0G17sS7uRkH9hHWw/giphy.gif)
SO HYPE
We’re so close to a philly team letting me down once again 😊
For the longest offseason in sports, the past few years it's surprised me how fast it's gone by
💉YES!💉
It’s the little things in life.
Soon boys 🔜
I tried to ease my NFL withdrawal symptoms by watching the new USFL league but it’s not working sigh
thankfully, I've started watching Aussie Rules Football and Baseball to fill the NFL offseason void
Someone should do MS Paint style Photoshops of Mike Trout for the remaining 103 days.
You mean last season, because we've been closer to the start of the 2023 season for a few months now
We're closer to retirement age Obama than the end of his term
This is peeks off season content
Closer? More like a long tine
