ful that the sheer majesty, and both the regretful but exhilarating feeling
manufactured by this climatic event, didn’t blur or diminish the great end to
the most spectacular superhero experience – ever.
With the spoiler prohibition now lifted discussing “Avengers: End Game”
is fair game. Although, if you are still clinging to ignorance, worry not
– this is more about what we mere mortals can take from this departing

do with traditional sports.
