The good guys can win, after all!
Thanks, Hoosiers, we needed that! There is a spring in our step this frigid Wisconsin morning. An America aching to its soul wanted Indiana to win their game Monday night 01-19-26, needed the Hoosiers to be crowned the champions of college football, and they did it!

Hope struck out

Another thing about the Brewers:
They’re fun to watch! A thrill to hear “Let’s go Brewers” chanted at Wrigley Field during Monday’s 7-0 beatdown of the Chicago Cubs. On the way to the best record in all of Major League Baseball, the Crew has scored the most runs; their 645 are 2 better than the Los Angeles Dodgers, 9 better…
