So, this is a thing that exists on the Internet. And, I have to say, it's probably the most interesting thing I've ever read/watched that has to do with (American) football. Which, to be fair, isn't saying that much, because I think football is, on the whole, some boring-ass shit (or boring ass-shit, if you prefer, as both appropriately describe my opinion of football... or most any other sport, honestly). But it's still cool, even if it is, ostensibly, about football.
Spoiler: it's not actually about football...
...not really.
(If you're like me and normally have shit blocked by NoScript or whatever, you'll probably want to turn it off for this, at least if you want to get anything out of it. It's mostly just pages of colored text interspersed with animated images and Youtube embeds, though, nothing dangerous. The initial page is probably the most script-intensive thing about it, and it's mostly just series of weird redirects.)
Anyway. I found this, as with most things these days, via TV Tropes. I just went to their home page, intending to simply hit the random button until I came across something interesting, but this time I didn't even have to do that much. Right there on the TV Tropes front page they have the "Today's Featured Trope" and "Newest Trope" sections. The "Newest Trope" for today was "Mourning An Object," and it was from there that I found the page for "17776". That said, I haven't actually looked at the TVTropes page for this Internet entity beyond the intro yet, due to not wanting spoilers. But now, I think I'll do that, before going to bed. (It has a Wikipedia page, too.)
