Hey, the stretch listeners.

Before we get going, I want to talk about Mountain Dew. Listen, summer is finally here. It's Memorial Day weekend. I played some golf over the weekend. I had the Mountain Dews ready to go. Have to on the golf course. They were great. It was actually got kind of warm, so a little warmth helps out citrus kick even more. The best. It was nice, man. Nothing goes better with some golf and hang with your friends in the refreshing. Citrus kick of Mountain Dew. Mountain Dew was proudly born in the foothills of Tennessee. Enjoy the refreshing citrus kick of Mountain Dew, an original. I feel like I saw it everywhere this weekend, too. People enjoying it on boats. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. The lakefront was insane, and I felt like everybody was just having a little picnic with a little Mountain Dew right next to it. Exactly. Exactly. Grab a dew tasting great since 48. All right, Welcome to the stretch, everybody. A lot to get to. I saw the Red Stars won a game on Sunday. Here we go. The Chicago Sky got a big one against Toronto tomorrow. Fuck yes. Caleb, did you see that? What happened? Jams, is new PB&J company. Yep.

It's now the official.

Huge.

He's a muggle.

Yes. He's the peanut butter and jelly mogle now. Yeah. Yeah. Huge. It's the official partner of the Players Association. So a lot going on. Everything's awesome. Yep. Summers here. Yep. You're making a lot of burgers. Making a lot of burgers. Eating a lot of burgers. Yeah.

Um, there's nothing else. That's about it as far as I saw. Can I start by bringing up a beef I got with one of you guys? Yeah. Great. So this morning I'm walking into the office. It's about 9.15. About 100 yards ahead of me. I see Big Cat walking on the sidewalk.

So we're walking towards each other.

And I'm fairly certain he saw me as well and you walked to the other side of the street. Did not see you.

Did not see you.

Was walking towards Burger Barron.

So that's why I crossed the street.

Did not see you.

Okay.

Beef squash. Okay. I don't know what else to say. I didn't see it. What did you want from him? Nothing. Nothing at all. But you know where I was walking. Yeah, I knew what you were doing. So I crossed the street to go to the side of the street where my burger was. You did a burger for breakfast? I did not see you at all. Okay. All right. Just making sure. Just making sure. I thought that you might have saw me and you were avoiding you. I'm seeing you now. Yeah. No, I was not avoiding you. I had nothing to avoid you. Listen, here's the thing. The Cubs fucking suck. But they're, you have nothing to do with that. No, I don't. The Cubs fucking suck, but they, they're, you have nothing to do with that.

No, I don't. The Cubs suck. Uh, my fan base does, though. That's fine. I'm not, I'm more focused on

the fact that the Cubs are playing the worst baseball possible right now. I'd not, I'm not even

And then I put you back in. But other than that, the Cubs just suck. I don't know what else to say. They fucking suck. Craig Counsel, do something, dude. I know that he did something in terms of changing the lineup, putting PCA 1. Throw a chair. Like yell at someone. Get ejected. Do anything. Fight someone. A fight would change the vibes. It's just bad. They just have, they have nothing going for him. And it's like every time you open Twitter, it's like, oh, someone else is hurt. Someone else struck out again they can't score like the problem

the problem was at bats with runners in scoring position for the good chunk of the uh losing streak

now it's just like no one's getting on base yeah i'm not everyone sucks i'm not even going to blame
