Every day I will give you some unsolicited opinions I have about 5 random topics in bite sized form.
- I am a sucker for a hotel’s continental breakfast. The thought of unlimited all you can eat breakfast food is so irresistible. Breakfast food is hard to mess up. Bacon is bacon, sure you’d like it a little thicker, but just stack it and you get the same volume of bacon per bite. I like the scrambled eggs that you can use that bacon as a spoon for. Its just perfect. Oh and Apple juice at a continental breakfast just slaps.
- I dont know how sports bars are going to handle the influx of streaming services invading the sports broadcasting landscape. Are national chains going to get special USB/HDMI devices they create with an Amazon or Apple to make sure they get all the games, all the time? How are the single, mom and pop shops going to show these games? Surely, they cant afford 7 firesticks and subscriptions for all of those, when max screens are hit per account. I feel for all the millennials when they get asked to put on the game by their aunts, uncles, grandparents, or parents and that millennial has to ask 7 different questions to see if the game is an option at BBQ’s, parties or just chilling with family. The sports world especially baseball is splintering their audience and it wont be a great long term result for the game to gain popularity.
- Going into the wrestling world, I dont know how they are going to take the title off Roman Reigns. They have made him borderline “too powerful”. Hes taken down Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, Seth Rollins, and many many more. Its going to take quite the build for Cody Rhodes to become the babyface to take down the tribal chief. I hope its Cody, no one else really fits the bill at the moment.
- Tik Tok and its algorithm can be funny. The videos I put the most time on, struggle, but the silliest videos I have made get the most views. Im not complaining. Its just funny.
- If you are an Illini fan, spend your money with Jeremy Werner, Derek Piper, and Joey Wagner on Illini Inquirer. They have the most accurate coverage, the fastest coverage, and the best analysis on Illini football and basketball. There is an added bonus, Isaac Trotter writes columns about the national and regional landscape on 24/7 Sports.
