Forget about Thursday night’s game — tomorrow, Sunday, Sept. 13 is the real start of the season. The first day with more than one game, the first Sunday night matchup, the first pregame ESPN/CBS/Fox/NFL Network extravaganzas, the first burst of in-season fantasy madness, the first constant flipping to NFL Network’s running stat board during the early games (damn, I hope they brought that back last year), and the first day working your schedule around the NFL instead of the other way around. Don’t forget to make your weekly picks, update your fantasy teams, and have plenty of snack foods on hand. And enjoy Week 1, because if every season seems to hold true, it will be Week 17 before we know it.
