Posted on June 29, 2022June 29, 2022 by Louis de Ludovico

Listen, gentle reader. I messed up last match’s prediction. I knew it all along. It’s so predictable. I knew something like my prediction would go wrong (something’s always wrong). So you don’t have to call or say anything at all. It’s so predictable (so predictable). I mean, everyone’s been calling. Like I’ve been gone for…
