Sports Rain Man: Alex Smith, NBA Play-In Game And Dr. Sten Vermund
EL BARRIO, EL FALLS – Happy Saturday… I am gonna let you in on a little secret of how things work at MTM. Short Matt gives us a deadline to submit our articles. He then acts as the editor and goes through them, sensationalizes the title and publishes. I notoriously miss my deadline. It may […]
