Plenty of news today but none of it on my beat, so I suppose we’ll lean on the hot takes and sour grapes. I dunno. This has been a disheartening off-season. Not that I was expecting big signings or anything like that but it’s been a slog and I keep hoping that it gets better and it gets worse.
I’m not a fan of billionaires or gentrification, and watching what I thought was a cool neighborhood get turned into a mall isn’t my cuppa either. I liked it better when I could go to the diner across the street from Nuts on Clark and get a skirt steak and eggs for five bucks and wash it down with a cold beer at the ballyard for $3.
