11 Ways College Football Fans Fill The Off-Season
Daily Fantasy Sports Review

There is no time of year more horrible to football fans than the off-season. After another year of big moments, glorious wins and the roller coaster of emotions that all fans ride, the off-season is almost depressing. With no watch parties to attend or replays to watch, football fans can feel an emptiness waiting for the next season to start. However, many attempt to fill this hole in their lives by coping with their sadness in a variety of ways.

1. Reminiscing about the best moments of last season.

Because there's no greatness currently happening, you remember the touchdowns and game-changers of the past.

2. Constantly trying to fit football into conversation.

It doesn't matter if they're a fan, you're going to tell them everything about your team.

3. Randomly picking fights with rival fans.

"Hey, you remember when you totally choked in '07?"

4. Trying really hard to care about professional football.

They're just so old!

5. Obsessively reading all of the pre-season predictions and watch-lists.

I think we're gonna see some really impressive stuff this season.

6. Buying more of your team's merchandise.

All of your old stuff is so last season... Get it?

7. Pretending that you care as much about your college's other sports teams.

Baseball, basketball, whatever. We just want football!

8. Googling your team to see any updates about the team or the coach.

Apparently the quarterback got his mom a Mercedes for Mother's Day. I love that guy.

9. Brushing off people that bring up bad moments from last season.

He was just having a bad day, all right? The sun was in his eyes!

10. Pre-planning all of your watch parties.

There will be so many dips!

11. Getting yourself excited for the next season.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
