You could argue the Centennial Jerseys have too many stripes, though. So, how do we move on after a historic season ends in complete heartbreak?

Game 1 the offense flutters against Andrew Heaney. Game 2 the pitching pisses down their leg and it’s over before it starts. And Game 3 was more of the same with pitching. I talked about theDean Kremer situationon Tuesday when it was announced that he was starting....

Ok that was a long way of saying I don’t love this episode....

Despite concerns, ground-mounted solar panels currently cover just 0.1% of all land in the UK. Some even took to social media to express their dismay at the proposal.
