Strawberry In Trouble Again
Filing a false police report. Not Good. Strawberry charged with filing false police report
Looper’s Blown Season
I am so inseced by the news about Braden Looper‘s shoulder that I don’t even know where to begin. Looper was hurt even before the season began. He was told he needed surgery that would cause him to miss the early part of the season. The other option was to play through it because the […]
