ONCE UPON A TIME, DePAUL WAS GOOD AT BASKETBALL.

I know you probably can't remember those days if you're under 30 years old, but the Blue Demons were a respected outfit with a long history of success, and Marquette was their No. 1 rival. Now? Now they've been reduced to this.


THIS IS GOOD BEER. BOTTOMS UP.

Since there's usually a bevy of open seats at the Allstate Arena, today's Pint Touch is Half Acre Beer Company's Space IPA.
