Hit me again and something is going to happen. 24 times he’s been hit against the Brewers in his career. Woof. Sandy Alcantara trade talk is back! He’s an ace again! Almost went back-to-back shutouts! He was not happy about being taken out in the 9th! The Chicago Cubs are in the danger zone. Cade Horton is done for the season. Uh oh. The rotation is toast. No Horton. No Boyd. No Steele. Review: Company Retreat. What is going on in college sports? A transfer portal championship? Michigan just won it. Does it matter? North Carolina has hired Michael Malone. They went pro again! That’s because college sports is now pro sports! NPPOD. So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me about the Chicago Bulls.
