Ah, the thrill of the chase! That exhilarating moment when a seemingly impossible crossword clue suddenly clicks into place. Today, we’re tackling a particularly juicy one:
“Any of the Six in Football’s ‘New Year’s Six'”
.
This clue is a bit of a double whammy, requiring not only knowledge of football jargon but also a bit of historical context. Let’s break it down:
“Any of the Six”
