Most confusing chyron of 2021 I've seen so far:
"Australian Open: Players told not to feed mice while in Covid quarantine"
Trying not to learn any facts about that so I can keep believing that occasionally the BBC uses random word generators to keep things more interesting

This is something that can't be over-hyped. I can guarantee you, when you watch @derek_del's #inandofitself, now streaming on @hulu, you mind will be blown. That's just objective fact.

Thanks for the reminder, Joe. I'll put some recollections about this together tomorrow (you've beaten us to the July 2 anniversary over there in Australia). Involves how close the article came to never being written. Also, as I recall, Jim Cramer's efforts for the other side.
