Opinion: Two Badass Starting Rotations

13 Aug 2008 10:41:40 PDT

Written by Jeff Sackmann

Since the Cubs had the day off yesterday -- and apparently, I didn't miss much by missing most of the Brewers' 13-5 blowout of the Cardinals -- I decided to take in this new film, particularly since it was free (a DGA sponsored screening). I'll have the usual game post this afternoon. Go Cubs!
