What if the Mariners game isn’t over by the time the Cubs game starts?

Cade Horton threw an up-down-bullpen today and it went very well, Counsell said. How Horton feels tomorrow will be important.

“It was a really positive day.”

People might say that the Red Sox or Cubs had baseball's best curse, but I still think the S-Tier baseball curse is the Hanshin Tigers being cursed by Colonel Sanders.

Hilarious that Dave Roberts thought a 4-run lead was big enough for Blake Treinen to protect.

I believe it was before Game 1 of the NLCS. I know it was a Saturday afternoon because I was at a youth football game.

I appreciate Boog not mentioning the name of the team that blew that 8-run lead in the 1929 World Series. #GoCubsGo

Actual conversation between my wife and daughter:

Daughter: I have a headache.
Wife: I guess I can give you Tylenol since you already have autism.
Daughter: Maybe I can get double-autism!

And no, my wife did not take Tylenol when pregnant.

Those 4:30am Premier League starts are a killer. You just have to stay away from the internet until you can watch your recording and you'll be fine.

Sinclair can only pre-empt ABC programming so many times before their in violation of their affiliate agreement. At that point, ABC can pull SEC football and MNF from Sinclair, which would be a disaster for those affiliates.

Nexstar probably can't hang out much longer either.

Los Angeles is the most underrated city in the world. Most people think it’s nothing but Hollywood, but that’s only a tiny slice of the place.
