This is the third consecutive poll where all of the covers contain bad news! Happily, we'll see some good-news covers tomorrow.

This is great work by you. HARVEY WALLBANGERS and TOO MANY BREWS are easy, but sort of pitch-perfect headlines.

The shot of Cabrera in pain is a really good photo, but it's almost an assault on his dignity to run it.

Harvey Wallbangers, Kick In The Az and Blunder Road... I like Too
Many Brews, but it's intangibly sullied.

(don't tell anyone I voted for a Springsteen cover)

HARVEY WALLBANGERS is a perfect headline for a game in which Matt Harvey is battered by the Brewers. I loved the callback to the 1982 Brewers.

It's an even more perfect headline for a game in which Matt Harvey is battered by the Brewers following a suspension for missing work due to a drinking binge.

It works at three or four levels, even though it's 2017 and I don't know if anybody actually drinks harvey wallbangers anymore.
