That\u2019s an alarming rate given how new I am to writing here, but then I think about how many times Derek and Eli must have written about Craig\u2019s crotch over their many years (PAUSE), and I feel a little better. Craig was a true hero standing up for people everywhere when he snatched Brian \u201cCroveruser of Cro puns\u201d Cronauer\u2019s Make America Great Again hat and rubbed it ALLLLL up in his junk. I guess an honorable mention goes to the wine bottle Cro was nursing over the day, which made him lose enough sense to put that hat RIGHT back on his head. The hat was in Craig\u2019s crotch, and then the hat was on Brian\u2019s head. So, by the transitive property, Cro\u2019s head was in Craig\u2019s crotch. Right, isn\u2019t that how it works? Yeah, I went there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FIRST STAR<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>LBS player who ghosted on his game with 5 minutes left<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/lbs-ghost.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-14009 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/lbs-ghost-300x247.jpg\" alt=\"lbs-ghost\" width=\"300\" height=\"247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/lbs-ghost-300x247.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/lbs-ghost.jpg 348w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>According to my sources, the LBS player seen running off the courts with 5 minutes left in his game (when the LBS were only up by 1 goal, even) was actually rushing to the hospital because his wife was in labor.

He must not, because who leaves their playoff game with 5 minutes left?\u201d But I\u2019d like to publicly acknowledge I was wrong.
