A sportswriter swings and misses on a metaphor:
The Packers’ running back group is packed to the brim with distinct inexperience, unmistakable intrigue and alluring potential – creating a position with more mystery than most Poe novels.
Most Poe novels? You can count the novels that Edgar Allan Poe completed on one finger: The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket.
Can’t anyone here play this game?
That’s a quote from a sports figure, he explained to the sports journalists.
(Spoiler alert: I’m reading Poe now, so I’m likely to re-read that novel again in the coming weeks.)
