The Pi Brew
We’re back at it again with an all new Brew. It was a wild weekend that saw Conor McGregor break his ankle in a TKO loss to Dustin Poirier, and Ben Simmons get eviscerated at the ESPYs on national television. The MLB All-Star Game is almost upon us and a terrifying plot was uncovered just down the road from the game’s location. The Atlanta Braves suffered a major loss to their lineup. We have this and so much more, so let’s get to it.
FORZA ITALIA!
