Maureen Dowd: “Let me eat cake”

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the foul ball, and lose his own soul?

Is it really freedom if you don’t have the freedom to become a fascist without someone in a beanie berating you?

Looking at it that way, if the Blazers had scored 600 points, Steph still would have outscored Seth...but hey, they probably would have won, maybe.
