I’m on the East Coast. For me there’s a big residue of the Alex Smith curse here. Not drafting him, but naming him Alex (I can be a good NFL QB with a different OC every year) Smith.

Not gonna lie, that “Madame CJ Walker’s sister’s booty call kit” got a roaring laugh out of me.

I know! It’s so obvious I’m surprised she included it!

So, to steal a term from Bull Durham, he wants them lollygagging?

I don’t remember if the Phanatic usually wears pants.

Oh, they’ll do that. But Wen sounds like a perfect “EventheLiberalNPR” hire: Someone who would be dead weight in the proverbial “darkened alley” confrontation. And she’ll take up airtime doing it.

Tommie Smith and Juan Carlos lately, and I’m surprised more people haven’t been talking about them.

“Right now”?

Cut a lot of corners, eh?

You wrote how many hundred words without making a Palisades Park gag?
