A new Quinnipiac poll shows Joe Biden still in charge, with 32 percent of Democrats supporting him. Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and Kamala Harris are running 2-3-4 behind Fossil Fuel Joe. Bill de Blasio, running last, at 1 percent, will be on Sean Hannity’s Fox News show Wednesday in an attempt to put an end to his run.

It’s the dog days of August in Detroit. Fans there are looking forward to the Lions’ opener because the season can’t end fast enough for the Tigers. Baseball’s worst team is home against the White Sox and Tyler Alexander (0-2) and should prove to be more gracious hosts than Hannity. Ivan Nova takes his turn for the Chisox, and he’s been super, with an ERA reading 0.90 over his past three starts. Play 20 units on the White Sox … Let’s play two. The Dodgers, baseball’s best team, are on cruise control until we near playoff time. Dustin May (Gingergaard? Carrot Top?) lost his MLB debut against the Padres. Cards are in L.A. and struggling Jack Flaherty showed up in his last start, tossing a one-hitter at the Cubs. 10 units on the Cards.

Jon Lester was tagged for eight runs in the second inning, left after four after allowing three more and the A’s mauled the Cubs 11-4. Road-’dog W has us at -524 salbandos.
