Olbermann joins the Goodyear blimp as the second biggest bag of hot air to cover a major sporting event.

Condolences to the TBS production staff.

Lindy, I support you 1000%, but you are still trying to be the comedy police and it's a job that's unwinnable.

Hear, hear! Thanks for posting this.

The French are confident that using an 10-0-0 formation is impenetrable.

Germany conquering Europe? Not if FC Maginot and it's stiff, unbending defense have anything to say about it.

As a Young I love talking to Olds about their/ my life choices (provided they are non-judgmental Olds who will not look at me like I am crazy when I say I want to have a creative/ non-traditional career or begin waxing on how privileged I am to have xyz that they never had), not for advice necessarily but just to hash…

Oh, this isn't advice for one's own children. This is advice about being a 40-ish who works with/socializes with lots of people who haven't hit their quarter-century mark. (It's a weird place I find myself in.)

I don't think he sheds light on inequality, honestly. I think he likes to point at the plebes and their animalistic drives and scoff at them while puffing at his aristocratic pipe. I hate him for that.

Lars von Trier is an insufferable prick who makes insufferable movies that other insufferable pricks watch to carry on their insufferable prick cinema pretentions.

Lars von Trier is the most condescendingly scornful, obnoxiously manipulative asshole of a director that ever was. I hate his work. Hate it with a burning passion. I dearly hope he slides into utter irrelevance very soon.

As an old, the best advice I can give olds when dealing with youngs is:

Haven't had kids, but as the potential father, I'd like it to be she and I, and the minimal amount of medicos necessary. It's an incredibly intimate moment, IMO.

Ian Darke's work with the World Cup has been a lot of Americans' introduction to soccer. It's hard to imagine those broadcasts without him.
