My all-time favorite Dawson bit on Family Feud was the "Name a question such as 'How old are you?' . . . " debacle, in which his self-control against ridiculing dumb contestants was more than admirable.

I think we generally do a good job of keeping socially conservative voices out of academia, the entertainment industry, and the media (I don't count Fox News or AM talk radio as legitimate journalism), but stories like these remind me that there's still a bit of distance left to cover. The AP simply feels that,

Jaw-dropping fact of the night: Vin Scully will be calling phenom/douchebag Bryce Harper's first game in just a few minutes. Vin Scully also called Mickey Mantle's first game. MICKEY MANTLE.

Still bothers me: Pronouncing it "Jag-wire."

I'm just impressed that they won the big game with Coach Tackleberry at the controls.

+1 elitism

+1. Perhaps she prefers scissoring?
