From a Biblical Perspective

This being the month of June, it is with great pride that the piece I’ve submitted in this issue is one that depicts what I believe the rainbow truly stands for according to the precious Word of God—as written in His Holy Book, the Bible.

A Token of God’s Promise

Dear Lord!

Not only hast thou given

Thy vow

to never again punish

the grievous wickedness

of the world

via the waters of

a great flood—

but, Thou hast gone

beyond that, O Gracious God

by sealing thy

promise

with an awesome, heavenly sign,

the rainbow—

that beautiful arc

imbued with all

the prismic colors

our eyes so love

to behold!

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.
