Drew Carey is a hard-core Libertarian. Count that as what you will.

These are are same people that got mad at me for saying that Obama, while a great president, was probably not in the top 5. We only have extremes.

This is where we limited ourselves linguistically. We spent so much time calling every Conservative “evil” that we have no words left to describe someone like Trump.

W. was absolutely “so bad,” but he wasn’t the worst. Trump will go down as the worst. At the end of his term, he will occupy spot number 43. G.W. Bush is most likely 40th. I’ll take 40th over 43rd any day, wouldn’t you?

It probably happens less in the NFL than in other leagues, but players routinely sit out meaningless games at the end of the season when they won’t make the players in the NHL. I don’t follow MLB or the NBA nearly enough to see if it happens there too, but I suspect it does.

Or, in the case of the 76ers, continuing to skip games even after turning pro.

ESPN deserves a lot of credit for running that documentary in the leadup to the election. Granted, it was all for naught, but it was a stealth way of saying their feelings while “sticking to sports.”

I bring up again a conversation from the set of Celebrity Apprentice, as recounted by Penn Jillette on Penn’s Sunday School.

In political circles, that’s known as “pulling a Grant.”

Yeah ‘71, that was my first year on the job. Bad year for libraries. Bad year for America. Hippies burning library cards, Abby Hoffman telling everybody to steal books. I don’t judge a man by the length of his hair or the kind of music he listens to. Rock was never my bag. But you put on a pair of shoes when you walk…

I know multiple Trump supporters who are also public school teachers, who do not like DeVos. This has been fun. I could argue with them, go straight ahead telling them how bad Trump has been, but where’s the fun in that. I tell them how much I agree with Trump, how we’re way too low in education in the world and that…

I agree. There was an old story about a quarterback in the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl turning to his teammates in the huddle, pointing to the stands, and saying “hey look guys! John Candy!” How can anyone play with someone that was so clearly not focused on the game?

Baltimore’s won two without ever having an elite quarterback.

I’m a Flyers fan. I’d be lying if I said we wouldn’t elect him mayor if he was here.

If we held a “Punch Brad Marchand in the face for $5" fundraiser, we could cure cancer with the proceeds.

Just moved to SC. Been enjoying the barbecue so far, haven’t gotten shrimp and grits yet, and on a side note, I LOVE your avatar.

Everyone forgets this.

This was good.

No, but Hugh G. Rection is a second cousin.
