O’Neal’s Bone take is the only good one, IMO—the main target for most of the piece isn’t really Bone (who has his share of eccentricities but is really just an average guy more-or-less) but the the “wholesale righteousness” of the response and the quick turnaround in people’s opinion of him…

This is delightful, Mike. Three year-old me would have been obsessed with this.

Well, not forever given its current state…
