If they'd been doing this in the 1980s, we'd have had Bea Arthur shouting "WHERE'S THE BEEF?" and we would never have met Clara Peller.

It is tacky for really famous people to be in TV commercials for products. Their gambling debts/boat repairs are not my problem, those roles should belong to actors like the Time To Make The Donuts guy and the actress who said "who are you calling a cootie queen you lint licker" in that Orbit ad.

Wrote this when Texas A&M paid Jimbo Fisher more than $77 million to go away. Still true!

Jimbo Fisher's exorbitant buyout reminder athletes aren't ones who broke college athletics

Texas A&M will pay Jimbo Fisher more than $77 million to go away. Can't pay those college athletes, though!

Isn't a Scorigami quite unlikely in every game?

We don't mind it. I don't mean that in a "gotcha" way. I mean it in a "we haven't had to live our entire lives dealing with it and the unwelcome attention and creeps and weirdos who come on to us when we're just minding our own business." I'm all for Stacy building a Sex Frankenstein out of Athletes
