Imagine riding a 14-game win streak and then having it halted by the All-Star Break / Shut Up Sipple (sponsored by Bagels & Joe) Jul 18, 2022

Show notes

-The poor Seattle Mariners. All they’re trying to do is end a 21-year playoff drought, and the last thing they want is the All Star Break…which is where we’re at until Friday

-The Mariners had been pretty mediocre this year until the hot streak…and now they’d be in the playoffs if the season ended today. Wouldn’t you hate a bye week for Nebraska if they’d won like 7 straight games in football?
