… and finally: we’re not particularly fond of things extreme (certain brands of politics & weather come to mind) or xtreme (short-run Mountain Dew varietals or snowboarding competitions, for example), so we’re not particularly jazzed by the pending return of the Xtreme Football League.  Nonetheless, we wish you luck in changing our minds in your role as Team Marketing Director (scroll down) for the XFL’s still-unnamed DC entry, which will be playing at Audi Field come early 2020.

Best wishes for a lovely & non-extreme weekend from your favoritepublic affairs jobs resource.
