We made it. It's the heart (and heat) of Summer 2024. And as much as we have missed the thrill of professional football, it's coming around the bend once more. The LA Rams have plenty to look forward to this season, as the team has found a way to flip the switch from tumble to climb. The team that had fallen to an 8-18 record from 2022 through the first half of 2023 has gotten hot, and is on the cusp of a winning 7-1 wave to the final eight games of 2023.
The team, and fans, hope that there is more success where that came from.
Well, we will quickly find out. You see, time flies when you are having fun, and we must all be having a blast, because the LA Rams suit up to play in their first preseason game in less than a month.
How can it all be happening so quickly? Well, the expansion of the NFL regular season to 17 games has helped a little bit. And the marketing department that aids in timing NFL unique events to keep football fans invested in the sport are geniuses. After the annual Super Bowl, teams have the opening of a new NFL Free Agency market, the annual NFL Scouting Combine, collegiate Pro Days, and then the annual NFL Draft.
But now we are talking about football. So what are the upcoming key dates to watch for?
