The NFL is an interesting place when the league calendar hits May.
One of the bigger news items to drop during the month is the annual schedule release, which is another example of why the NFL is king. Teams and their fans have known for months who will be on the season schedule, but it is still fun to learn the various particulars of the schedule.
