So, what the Hell am I reading here, anyway?

Personal Vowels is an American football blog written by Nick Smiley. The point of the project is to retain elements of storytelling and thrift while simultaneously sifting through seas of statistics to give readers a unique look at the NFL, its history, and the endlessly enthralling stories that make its annals up.

Most of the focus of this website’s writings will be on large concepts: teams, seasons, trends that develop over many seasons. At least at first. We will just have to see where the whole thing goes.
