I might need to retire. After a fantastic first-half of the season, I’m as cold as cold can be the past three weeks. As Stuart Scott so poetically put it time-and-time again on SportsCenter, I’m as cooooool as the other side of the pillow — except in a bad way. Still, glass half-full, we’re sitting […]

There’s a full-slate of baseball this evening, but does it really matter? Like the rest of the world, I’m in complete Barbenheimer mode.
