I Don't Care If I Ever Get Back: B1G Softball Tournament Championship!
Bears v Corn!
One quick thing: If you're seeing a sign-up blurb at the top of this page, please go ahead and sign up for our (soon to be revived) weekly newsletter. If you aren't seeing a blurb, hey fantastic, you already signed up! (What's wrong with you? Make better choices! But also thank you!)
Good morning! We've got another long day of Big Ten games ahead of us. Let's get prepared by reading a few articles, shooting the shit, and talking ball. Enjoy it, for alas, the season's end rapidly approaches.
Imagine that this post is like a substantial breakfast burrito and a large iced coffee spent with Pat McAfee! Now imagine that McAfee has been redirected to a very uninhabited island in the south Pacific. Oh thank god. Go enjoy that burrito in silence. Ahhhhh.
(If you're looking for game previews or Xs and Os or that sort of thing, this isn't the place. Sorry.)

Even with putting the institutional investment plan on hold, the league and schools have big questions left to answer
