Los Angeles Rams HC Sean McVay getting a shoe deal\u2014a head coach getting a shoe deal\u2014gives me an idea. <\/p>\n
Since we have print-on-demand, a shoe company could produce a sneaker on demand with any individual’s name and design on it.<\/p>\n
Now, that’s an idea waiting to pump or pop.<\/p>\n
\u2026Or has this already happened?<\/p>\n
As an anti-soccer guy, I’ve been watching a lot of the World Cup, and I found myself genuinely happy with Mexico’s victory.<\/p>\n
I’ve come to identify three types of soccer watchers:
\n(I say watchers because I don’t know if they’re all fans.)
\nThe Casual: Me
\nThe Poser: Much of the media
\nThe Actual: No explanation necessary.<\/p>\n
I had an Actual explain to me why Mexico has never won the World Cup. And he said it was more than “The Quinto Partido Curse.”<\/p>\n
(I know about the ‘Curse,’ but I remain a Casual. If you know about the ‘Curse,’ I will trust that you are an Actual.)<\/p>\n
As I’ve come back to sports\u2014never really left, but definitely diving back in deeper\u2014I’m curious to know if there’s a big boxing match on the horizon? There may be, but I haven’t heard anything. Have you? Enlighten me.<\/p>\n

On this date in 2017, the Dodgers had a five-run lead over the New York Mets, and Dodger fans were worried Dave Roberts was going to put Chris Hatcher on the mound to close it out.
\n(Yes, this is a sign about how desperate I am.)<\/p>\n
By the way, whatever happened to Chris Hatcher?<\/p>\n
#70\u2014May the San Francisco Giants rot and lie stinking in the earth\u2026<\/p>\n
I was in a bar last night talking to a bartender from Minnesota about hockey, and missed the Mets’ Juan Soto’s two home runs. However, I saw all the bad stuff and thought they lost.<\/p>\n
But the Mets ended up winning, 6-4, and are a mere five games out of a Wild Card spot. Francisco Lindor is coming back, they may trade for pitching help in July, and I still believe!<\/p>\n
Why shouldn’t I? After all, the Chicago White Sox have now spent three full days in first place in the American League Central.<\/p>\n
Is it fair to say that last night Angel Reese had her best game as a pro? Couple that with a victory over a Caitlin Clark team, and it was a full-fledged la fiesta grande.<\/p>\n
Last Note Clark: She attempted five treys, instead of eight, and made two. Much better.<\/p>\n
