Bootsy szn is that stretch of time when a collective downward spiral in quality, effort, or taste becomes impossible to ignore — a cultural or social season where everyone seems to be phoning it in together. It can apply to a sports team hitting a slump, a TV show that's clearly running on fumes, a city's nightlife scene after the good venues close, or a friend group that's just stopped trying. Bootsy szn is never officially announced; it just gradually becomes undeniable, usually around the time someone says "what happened to us?"
This league been in bootsy szn since they changed the draft rules — half these teams don't even look like they're trying.
