Will Leitch on the pending sale of the Cincinnati Reds ;
The new ownership could make Cincinnati relevant in the baseball world again, which is great, unless of course you™re black, in which case, nothing in Cincinnati is all that great for you.
Unlike, say, the wonderful city of St. Louis where there is no tangible evidence of intolerance or bigotry.
Didn’t you once take me to task for suggesting that you had a Wil Leitch fixation?
I dunno man, but is he the only recipient of a “XXXX sucks” designation for your column catagories?
“didn’t you once take me to task for suggesting that you had a Wil (sic) Leitch fixation?”
Indeed I did. And I promise I’ll stop kicking the shit out of him the second he vanishes.
“I dunno man, but is he the only recipient of a “XXXX sucks†designation for your column catagories?”
Thus far, yes. But if you’re proposing yourself as a candidate for another, I’m afraid you’ll have to start sucking a lot harder.
I’m sucking as fast as I can (man, it’s weird to write that)
No weirder than saying it out loud, I can assure you.
Oh yeah, another Will special ;
“The big news in New York this morning — now that A-Rod has been appropriately chided for that not-really-all-that-nasty gambling business — involves five Muslim football fans who were detained in September at Giants Stadium during the Giants-Saints game.”
Interesting how this is considered “big news” this morning, when that obscure little paper called Newsday ran with it yesterday, as did countless other outlets (http://cstb.wpengine.com/index.php?p=3546) . For a topical humor site, the reflexes are pretty slow over there.
Those good folk in St. Louis always conveniently seem to forget that their big summertime festival is called The VP Fair. And what pray tell is the “VP” in “VP Fair?” Why, it the “veiled prophet” as in the order of the veiled prophet, which was an organization of rich white folk organized shortly after the civil war and bore more than a passing resemblance to the KKK.
