Dan Bernstein reacts to a growing storyline surrounding Pete Crow-Armstrong after two different Cubs broadcasters suggested he may need a day off.

0:00 PCA

21:50 Pat Fitzgerald

38:30 Bulls - King

Dan asks the obvious question: where is this coming from? Is PCA signaling that he needs a breather, or are broadcasters simply reading into the situation?

Plus, Dan unloads on former Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald following his Big Ten Media Days appearance as Michigan State's new head coach, discusses the challenge facing the Bulls as they look to replace longtime TV analyst Stacey King, and dives into Illinois' unusual new roadkill law.
