We're ignoring The Thing From Last Night

Hello to the boring, lame offseason, but welcome to the full of random fun stuff offseason! We're ignoring any of the events that may have happened over the past 12 hours (argh good for you Dtownk, RMB, 97allstars, and any Wolverines that I missed, and that's all I can do here for contractual reasons).

But we've got some underrated Big Ten sports coming soon, and that's worthy of hope and of excitement. All of which includes B1G softball, baseball, and dirt track single-speed bike racing in Bloomington, Indiana! God, I love Little 500 weekend.

Plus whatever other stuff your intrepid gang of OTR writers come up with, which could range from a historical deep-dive on previous bball champs to a Minnesota Bloody Mary recipe to a Hmong-style bratwurst treatise. We have no idea what we're doing here! What fun! Hit us up with thoughts, recs, comments, complaints, and accolades!

The point, as much as there is one: OTR remains a going concern, although the ordinary August-April sports aren't as available right now. Stick around. We'll have some fun stuff coming soon.

And if that's not enough for you? Week Zero is only 139 days away.

Thanks for spending some time here. We're only getting started. (No, I'm not saying another goddamn thing about the Wolverines.)
