While The Daily Dose is on hiatus, there is still bliss to be had with both The Diary of a Nobody and the Week 1 NFL Bottom Ten.

If anything, the race for The Dan Henning Trophy – symbolic of NFL Bottom Ten supremacy – promises to be a dog fight from the get-go, with both defending champion Tennessee and defending runner-up Cleveland both riding six (6)-game losing streaks, while the Giants have lost twelve (12) out of 13.
In other news, “This Week’s Clash of the Titans”, which for a quarter century has heralded the week’s worst NFL game, has been replaced with “This Week’s Showcase”. This Is Don Criqui Reporting – which heralds the second-worst game – is back, however.
This week’s mess, as the nags preen before entering the starting gate:
Editor’s Note: 2024 record, final ranking in parentheses.
1. Cleveland Browns (3-14; 2nd) – Third B-10 title definitely in crosshairs, as Browns look to ride momentum from 2024’s season-ending six (6)-game skid to another B-10 title…Young Browns hoping to get pointers from B-10 perennials Bengals in opener…Opening Loss: Cincinnati

With the two-time defending ESPN Cup winners and Bottom Ten perennial UMess returning to the fold, it is hardly a bulletin that the MAC takes center stage in the Week 1 Bottom Ten survey. With three teams – not to mention the conference itself – ranked this week, the MAC is (again) the team to beat – literally – in the quest for Bottom Ten glory.
The showcase leads off with two-time defending ESPNCup champion Kent State – losers of an impressive 21 straight – taking top Week 1 honors, with UMess and Akron also expected to make a mess of things.
This opening week imbroglio:
Editor’s Note: 2024 record, final Bottom Ten ranking, in parenthesis.
1. Kent State (0-12; 1st)
Mitigating Factors: Golden Flashes looking to be first team ever to win B-10 Triple Crown sponsored by the Holy Trinity with three consecutive B-10 titles, a feat that would have even Northwestern and Duke nodding in admiration…Title this year would be sixth overall – all this century – second only to Tijuana Tech’s eight titles, mostly during Eisenhower Administration.
FunFact: Golden Flashes playing for posterity this year, as B-10 coveted Team of the Quarter Century Award is their’s for the losing.
Opening Loss: Merrimack
