If you're cooking out this weekend, nothing beats the sizzle of beef on the grill. I cook the steak on the grill just this very weekend. You'll never believe it. It was delicious. And that could be you each and every weekend or every weeknight. A steak is a quick cook, guys. You know, you buy a couple of steaks. You get the pan hot. You don't have to fire up the grill. We're not talking long. And you can have dinner on the table for your family in a matter of minutes. And who's going to be mad about a Tuesday night steak? Nobody, I promise you that. Beef, it's what's for dinner. Thanks to our friends at the Mississippi Beef Council.

Carlo not with us today as he begins his treatment.

Hopefully he's going to be on a couple of times with this week.

Definitely will be on for the rumblings, but not today.

That's fine.

We've got plenty to talk about here on a Monday, and we'll start, obviously, with the Major League Baseball draft, which went about as well as I think Mississippi State and Coach Brian O'Connor could have hoped for.

First off, Ace Reese, another first round pick for Mississippi State.

I like what Robbie Falk, who of course is no longer with us,

tweeted earlier on Saturday that now Mississippi State has had a first-round pick at every

position on the diamond. That's a cool stat. You can make a whole team out of first-round

diamond dogs. 24th overall to the Seattle Mariners.

You know, never know how these things are going to work.

Guys get traded all the time, so he may never play a moment in Seattle,

but I certainly think that's a guy who will find his way to the major leagues
