In Praise of The Mother of God!

A desperately, desperately needed Miracle was granted to my family the day of October 12th of this year as a result of fervently Praying The Akathist to The Mother of Our Lord—Her help ending a relentlessly hellish nightmare that lasted for almost two and a half years. I have submitted this entry first and foremost to give Glory to the Queen of Heaven and to inspire the hopeless with hope!

Our Prayer to You O Blessed Lady

What tremendous

Joy

Is ours

As You poured

Out

Your Great

Compassion

On us—

Taking away

The great suffering

We endured

O Holy Mother

Of God!

Immense is our

Gratitude

To you!

Glory be to Thee!

Glory be to Thee!

Glory be to Thee!

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
