The Bottom Ten/2020 Opening Remarks
By Gaylon Kent

Valued Reader,
This is, of course, the week when that fall staple and American classic, The Bottom Ten would normally return. As we noted a couple of weeks ago, the Mid-American Conference’s (MAC) cancelation of their 2020 season, as well as other teams, conferences and divisions announcing they weren’t playing, either, this fall, obliged Bottom Ten pollsters to announce they, too, would be suspending operations for the season. Because let’s be honest, it’s hard for a column that ranks lousy college football teams – like The Bottom Ten, for instance – to have any credibility, never a strong suit, anyway, without MAC participation.
We may, or we may not, run an NFL Bottom Ten. 90% of this trade is inspiration and we’ll see what strikes us. Offhand, we’ve got to be honest, we are not seeing any point to playing games without fans in attendance and there will probably not be a 2020 NFL Bottom Ten.
So instead of exciting fresh content this year, we are pleased to present thrilling, tired old rehashed content from years past. Your more or less hardworking Bottom Ten pollsters are already scouring the archives for the best columns from each week, the first of which will run tomorrow.
And, because we feel guilty enough charging you for original crap, the 2020 Bottom Ten will be on the house.
Many thanks for reading,
Gaylon
