It’s the craziest thing. It seems to happen every day.

pre HGH, maybe.

“Ourobouros of Idiocy”? A ska band playing the Republican National Convention?

“I had an idea this might be my last year,” LaRoche says

Did you really read the article? I did, and I missed where Talese defends Foos.

Not really. He says that the reason it’s being published is because Foos finally gave him permission after 30+ years. Then he theorizes that perhaps why Foos gives permission is because of statute of limitations.

I think it’s pretty obvious from the article that Talese had essentially zero respect for Foos as a “researcher.” He clearly paints him as a disturbed obsessive, someone who is using the veneer of “research” to paint over his guilt or discomfort with his own perversion.

Also, coincidentally, the name of a mafia tough played by Nick Offerman in his forthcoming movie.

Stockton is great, a legend, but by what measure does he feel qualified to assist with Sloan’s treatment?

You want Hinkie’s resignation letter? Got a spare second round draft pic?

Too early to say for sure. But McGuire needed Canseco for his.

Every time a story like this breaks I think I understand why people score poorly on standardized tests. Reading comprehension matters. There is a giant difference between saying “I was not inspired by women writers when I was young” and “I do not find women writers inspirational.” Talese never said the latter, no…

This is one of things where I’m like “I don’t think you get it.” Why should he fuck himself that he wasn’t influenced by female journalists in the 1940s and 1950s when he was coming up? He didn’t make that culture and it’s an objective truth that journalism, especially the kind that he practiced (and which he is…
