You’re right. It is sad that whatever provincial metropolis you live in or near isn’t the media capital of the world.

Maybe next time I’ll just go with “First!”

You couldn’t’ve just gone with “Home” instead of “Domestic”?

Shit! And here I thought Towson was a HBCU. Shows just how little I know.

Nah, this is Deadspin, everyone likes a smart ass.
