An optical portal, akin to a crystal ball that presents a randomly selected image of your life in twenty years, is constructed by someone.
You can only see into this portal for thirty seconds. When you peer into the crystal, you see yourself in a living room, two decades older than you are today.
You are watching a Canadian football game, and you are extremely happy. You are wearing a CFL jersey. Your chair is surrounded by CFL books and magazines that promote the Canadian Football League, and there are CFL pennants covering your walls.
You are alone in the room, but you are gleefully muttering about historical moments in Canadian football history. It becomes clear that for some unknown reason you have become obsessed with Canadian football. And this future is static and absolute; no matter what you do, this future will happen.
The optical portal is never wrong. This destiny cannot be changed. The next day, you are flipping through television channels and randomly come across a pre-season CFL game between the Toronto Argonauts and the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Knowing your inevitable future, do you now watch it?
