...really. I am in awe of the both graceful and guttural physicality of the game, the full-contact, heady delirium of the pileup, and the breathless climax of a perfectly executed 60-yard Hail Mary pass.

One of them was a female co-worker, so embarrassed that she was at the concert (and drunk) that she did not make eye contact with me the next few days at work. One of their final songs was a crowd favorite, “Zhong Nan Hai.” At the time I thought the song was about the complex of buildings that are effectively the headquarters of the Communist Party of China...
