• Jenni Carlson homed in on what’s hard to understand about this Cowboy Football squad: 

Can that kind of thing be fixed?

Sure.

But with so many veteran players and such varied issues, shouldn’t it have been fixed already?

It was a big day yesterday for PFB founder Kyle Porter – his last day at CBS Sports before he spins off to start his next venture, which you can read about here.

After 12 extraordinary years, today is my last day to work at CBS Sports.

That is a surprisingly difficult thing for me to type. It has been a dream job in so many different ways.

I will write more about that experience and what’s next for me in the Normal Sport newsletter…
