This week’s piece describes a devasted man who finally leaves his wife after enduring years of her short-lived attempts to mend her ways…

Woe is Me!

You made our marriage

mostly one

of misery Lenore;

I’m leaving you

for good this time—

as I can take

no more!

So often you had vowed

to change your sinful

ways

but, through the years

you’ve broken all

the promises you made…

I should’ve left you

long ago

for then I wouldn’t be

the badly broken man

that you have made

of me—

afraid to ever give

my heart away

again

afraid to ever give

my heart away

again!

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.
