Call it a hunch but I imagine as you begin this new “work week,” many of you are familiar with this kind of morning ritual: Wake up… Get dressed from the waist up… Then sit and Zoom through a morning meeting mocked by the need for an extra cup of coffee. Let’s face it, our lives have resembled a 2020 version of the movie Groundhog’s Day where the role of Bill Murray has been replaced by the swivel chair in our home office, and the redundancy of a daily commute from the bedroom to a converted guest room. The initial 2-week COVID lockdown back in March to “flatten the curve” has seen its shadow and turned into 6 months of Zoom fatigue. So what are you doing to push through?

More than 4-million people savored the chance Thursday to watch live sports as Major League Baseball’s opening night of a coronavirus-condensed season quickly became the most-watched baseball telecast in the last nine years. I delighted in reuniting my tv remote with ESPN—one of the millions who enjoyed finding something other than the American Cornhole Championships or the Drone Racing League broadcasts that had been featured in the absence of professional sports over the past 4-5 months. Nothing replaces the thrill of gameday.
