The Pi Brew
We’re back with an all new Brew. Memorial Day weekend saw gas prices through the roof, but that hasn’t stopped people from traveling. The fallout from the school shooting in Texas continues and man oh man are Republican politicians a bunch of scumbags. Poor ticket sales forced the WWE to move their Money in the Bank pay-per-view to a smaller location. The Lakers hired a new coach for LeBron James to push around. We have a lot to get to, so let’s do this. It MDW Brew time!

NHL Playoffs vs NBA Playoffs…which is better?
Column: Once again, the NHL playoffs are proving to be the most compelling show in all of sports. Game 7s? Check. Overtime goals? Check. Fierce rivalries? Check. It almost makes up for the snoozzzzzzfest that has been the NBA playoffs.

Have another 8 ball why don’t you, Junior
Junior went on a wild rant about Uvalde tonight, saying the AR-15 isn’t the issue because he could’ve done the “exact same thing” with a bat, bomb or machete. He says gun owners are unfairly “stigmatatized,” and the real problem is that “crazy teachers” are indoctrinating kids. pic.twitter.com/2Rmme3510A
