Yes, the wind (+6.1m/s!) was pretty darn strong, but even so - that 19.49 by Kenny Bednarek is the fastest wind-assisted 200m in history. Under any conditions, only three men have gone faster: Usain Bolt Yohan Blake Michael Johnson nitter.gq/IHCCAthletics/status/1…
Kenny Bednarek is fast. 200 meter prelims, 19.49😳

I’m in back in my old stomping grounds in Green Bay, on the Packers training camp beat for a few days. Check out the Leader-Telegram tomorrow and Saturday for a bunch of stuff on the Green and Gold.

One of the better tales heard in Vegas: The Pistons, I'm told, recently arranged for Kevin Garnett to work with Andre Drummond and Henry Ellenson in one of his signature behind-closed-doors tutoring sessions.

Ty Emberson’s path to the @NHL will sound awfully familiar to you. That’s because it’s the same path a current Sabre took, and he looks up to him ➡️ bufsabres.co/NoRX4i

It is with a heavy heart that I have to share of Glenn St. Arnault's passing today. Glenn was involved in Eau Claire's baseball community for 50+ years, helping create an unmatched baseball community for Eau Claire. Rest In Peace Saint.
