Grantland has totally failed in my eyes to bridge the connection between sports and pop culture, and to that end it fails to do what it exists to do. But it's got time to work out the kinks.

The worst talking head on Around the Horn is named Bill Plaschke. Check that, the worst talking head in the universe is named Bill Plaschke.

Bayless may have struck you as an actor, but he was the one who accused Troy Aikman of being gay for no other reason than to drum up controversy and attempt to drive apart the Cowboys locker room to create drama. So his act, if it is an act, by default makes him a shitbutt.

There can be only one!

No, he's right.

He looks a little Orson Wellesish, to be honest.

Two posts, one for each meaning of aloha! I see the subtle brilliance in that. Everyone else might not, BUT I DO.

"Paradise" is an awesome song, and you all suck. It's not just about sex, it's about being forced to pledge your love to someone before you do it with them and then realizing 10 years later what a horrible mistake you made.

Ducktales party!

Wait, did someone just say Chicago doesn't have a punk rock scene? That's just a failure to troll.

Because he didn't like hip-hop all that much.

Were it not for the I'm New Here comeback, this would be an Alex Chilton situation. Dude dies, millions of people suddenly realize how great he is. Obviously that's going to be true to some extent anyway, but part of the reason his death is such big news is because of A) Kanye West and B) the I'm/We're New Here…

Fuck the backlash
