  • Pete Crow-Armstrong is becoming that Guy

    Dan Bernstein floated the idea that PCA might be the most polarizing athlete in Chicago since…


    0:00 PCA

    19:40 MLB Notes

    33:15 NBA


    PCA doesn’t just play baseball—he performs. He leans into every moment, every reaction, every stare from the stands.

    And that moment at Guaranteed Rate—yeah, “The Rate”—is a perfect example. You’ve got a White Sox fan celebrating her engagement party, just trying to have her moment, and then suddenly she’s part of the show because PCA inserts himself into it. Whether you think it’s hilarious or annoying probably says more about you than it does about him.

    But here’s the thing: PCA knows exactly what he’s doing. This isn’t accidental. He understands the role. He embraces being the villain when it calls for it, especially on the South Side. And let’s be honest, baseball could use more of that.

    Meanwhile, the NBA is down to its final four, and Bernstein dropped a pretty bold take: the real championship is the Western Conference series between Oklahoma City and San Antonio. Not the Finals—the West.

    DraftKings shuts down its sportsbook at Wrigley Field as the gambling market starts to shift - it's easy to see why as the numbers explain it in the revenue.

  • OFF THE IVY: Chicago Cubs lose BRUTALLY in extra innings to White Sox to drop third consecutive series
    May 18 2026

    The Chicago Cubs dropped the weekend series to the White Sox and have now lost three consecutive series all thanks to the Cubs bullpen inability to keep the White Sox bats cold Sunday afternoon. Cubs lost 9-8 in extra innings after an Edgar Quero walk off 2-run homer. Michael Conforto gave the Cubs new life in the 9th inning with a 3-run homer to tie the game. They eventually took the lead in the 10th inning, but Ryan Rolison failed to close the game out.

    In this episode, we break down what went wrong against the White Sox, the biggest concerns from the series, and whether this recent skid is just a rough patch or a sign of larger issues. We’ll also discuss what the Cubs need to do to get back on track as they come back to Wrigley Field to host the Brewers tonight.

    Can the Cubs turn things around quickly, or should fans be worried about this downward trend?
