Congratulations to Japan for winning the World Baseball Classic. Has the GOP blamed Biden for Team USA’s loss yet?

Shohei Ohtani struck out Trout, swinging, to end the WBC. It was Shohei’s first relief appearance in over 6 years. Who does Ohtani think he is, Madison Bumgarner?

ESPN reported suspended Alabama freshman DB, Tony Mitchell, former ESPN 100 player, driving 141 mph as he attempted to flee Florida police last week. Tony’s talented enough someone will give him 2nd chance, but he’s lucky we’re not talking about funerals..

New York Mets will open a membership only speakeasy behind Citi Field’s right-field fence this season called the Cadillac Club.

So has Maggie found new horse to back for access?

Al Franken is guest hosting The Daily Show. Now I love watching Franken, but last night he told Lindsay Graham he was the funniest U.S. Senator. Sure what Al meant, being a Minnesotan and smart man, is Lindsay was the funniest MALE U.S. Senator.

Or he just forgot Amy Klobuchar
