This is your reminder that Notre Dame is 3-6 and in all likelihood will not go bowling. Also, they’ve already fired their D-coord and odds are quite strong that Brian Kelly will also be given a one-way ticket on Do One Airlines.

Ballpark Village, a big bar/restaurant/club complex across the street from Busch Stadium. They’ve announced “Phase 2", which is going to include offices and residential space.

‘99 Miata?

Have you SEEN Grich play CF? I love the guy but he’s much more of a fit for LF now that Holliday’s gone and Piscotty has locked up RF for the next few years. Fowler (or better yet, Yoenis) would be an instant upgrade.

Cards are beginning a new TV deal this year (it’s in the billion-dollar range for the life of the contract, includes some equity in Fox Sports Midwest, plus has live streaming for FSMW subs with a potential OTT option if they want to get around cord-cutting), plus they announced Phase 2 of BPV. They’re printing money…

I’m convinced that Haisley’s a replicant, because no human can write the sort of sentences he does.

And yet, noted failed real-estate speculator Mike Matheny got an extension, reportedly because Mozeliak is betting his career not on drafting Bader/Perez/Marp, not on signing Diaz/Reyes/Oh, but on a manager who needs a “quality control coach”.

You could choose to watch this film.

The pink hats have existed for as long as there’s been North Shore Trixies.

I forgot to save some of the pictures of Lumiere with Det. Lenny Briscoe quotes overlaid on them. You know, like “There’s no such thing as hooker-client confidentiality”.

She’ll respond to them the same way she did to BLM people: non-answers with a hint of derision. Then she’ll tell her Wall Street chaps they all need to get a life.

This chart:

You know who else is no. 1 in the charts?

Oh, they’re real. I tried them because I remember Simon Pegg’s character in Spaced saying that they make him violent, and their taste is...really, REALLY acquired. (And this is coming from someone that occasionally enjoys Vegemite.)

There’s an international supermarket here in St Louis (Global Foods on Lindbergh) that used to have both regular and spicy Nic Nacs. I’m going to swing by there later today and see if they still have the latter, because those were delicious.

My nomination: Eric Plunk.

I can’t read this without hearing it in Scott Van Pelt’s exaggerated Bawlmer, Murrlyn accent, and Tim Kurkjian giggling like a schoolgirl as a result.
