In sport, the games prior to the season that aren't given any value. They are just played more as a warm-up to the actual points system season.

A Bloomer is someone with a bright outlook on life who is optimistic in nature. Bloomer's frolic in every opportunity to be happy and try to make the most out of life. The opposite of a Bloomer is a Doomer. The term Bloomer originated specifically as a counter to the Doomer on sites especially like 4Chan.

Also known as hell. No matter what sport you play the first week or so of preseason sucks.
