That Jimmy V speech still kicks up all sorts of dust in here...

I don't know why you're all making fun of it. There's no mention of Rick Reilly anywhere.

@LeitchsQuadSquirrels: Brad Childress disagrees. Strongly.

This year's SHOTY lesson: You really can fuck your way to the top. And if you can't, you still finish second.

@AzureTexan: I'm sure she had plenty to spare.

This seems like as good a place as any to say it:

@Always Winning: Jesus.

@Phintastic: I... don't know?

@meatbat: If my name were Pauly Shore, I wouldn't cop to being the least successful one.

As someone who also shares a name with a person much more famous and successful than myself, best of luck on becoming the second-best you that you can possibly be.

Are they sending you to the same farm upstate that Chandler, C'lay, and Dash went to? It sounded so nice up there.

I'm voting Owen, because I'm still convinced I'll get to vote Favre next year.

Suddenly, the new hairdo makes sense.

@Eddie Murray Sparkles: Pretty awesome.

@Disco Choo: It does. But there's no ramp, only a Stairway.

Alright, I know Cleveland hates him, but blaming him for the Wall Street collapse is going a little too far.

Don't worry Cleveland, it's not your fault. No matter what you do, this is the narrative that the media decided on, so this is the narrative you're going to get. Observe:

@FireWakWithMe: It's almost as if ESPN had nothing to gain by reminding everyone how bummed Seattle is... Weird, isn't it?

@dont-forget-where-you-came-from-cheese mac: I disagree with the last part. I think "Joe Sports Fan gives his consent to Lebron James leaving, resents way he did it" is the equivalent of saying that you never have to be a dick just because you can be a dick. That's pretty universally accepted. And it's not as if…

In Cleveland's defense, they didn't exactly force every national writer, ESPN, and anyone with an opinion and an asshole to take the same angle for the last five months.
