Here we are. A couple of pints.

Great. Neck oil, yeah? As requested. So, what did you get up to this weekend? Well, funny story, actually. I befriended this panda, discovered he had a beautiful singing voice, taught him how to harmonise.

That's right, brother.

But really starting with, you could even go back to last week, the Mets started to get involved,

but I'm going to go back really to Wednesday because Wednesday, the flurry of moves that we started to see,
