Thursday Flakes: Softball in B1G Tourney, Cubs Win Again and More
I’ve been a lifelong Cubs fan, so to see them win their 13th straight at Wrigley is awesome. If you want them to lose at home, I have an idea…send me. I’ve been to the friendly confines 7 times and yet to see them win. I’ve seen them lose to the Astros, Reds, Giants (x2), […]

HUSKERS SOFTBALL Recap – Meet Your 2026 Big 10 Champs: #2 NEBRASKA 10 – Penn State 4
The phrase “they control own destiny” gets overused as all hell, but I have to give it credit – it sounds so much cooler than “just win out and it don’t matter none what them other donkeys are doing in their yard”. No one really controls destiny even if they’re the only ones who don’t […]
