Okay, so I’ve been hyped about the NFL season starting up again. Seriously, it feels like forever since the last game. So, like any normal, obsessed fan, I got it in my head to figure out precisely how many days are left until kickoff. Figured I’d share my “process” here, mostly because I actually surprised myself with how much effort I put into this.
First, I grabbed my phone and opened the calendar app. You know, the basic, default one. Then I started counting. Yep, just straight-up counting the days between today and the first game. I felt a little silly doing it that way, but hey, it’s a start.
After a few minutes of that, I realized there’s gotta be an easier way. So I opened my browser and typed in something like, “When does the NFL season start?” Boom, there it was. The date was right there. But that wasn’t enough. I still wanted the exact number of days.
The “Easier” Way
So I found this website that has the NFL schedule. Pretty cool, right? It was kind of cool.
Finally, I found a time calculator website. The kind where you can put in two dates and it tells you how much time is between them. Perfect! I typed in today’s date and the NFL kickoff date, and bam! There it was. The exact number of days, hours, minutes, and even seconds. Felt a little ridiculous, but it was satisfying to see it all laid out like that.
I wrote it all down, just because.
- Today’s date: Well, you know what today is.
- NFL Kickoff: 2024-09-05
- Days left: It was like 82 days or something like that. I forget, but it was cool to calculate.
So yeah, that’s how I figured out how many days until NFL kickoff. Maybe not the most groundbreaking stuff, but it kept me busy for a bit. Now, the real countdown begins!
