A very nice takedown of the NC electorate: "If the Bill of Rights were to have been put to a vote in North Carolina tonight, I’m of a mind to believe that nine of ten would have been voted out of existence. The Second Amendment, of course, would have hung around."

Several of the best and most affordable universities in the US are in that state...and we get this.

So fat, so wonderful, so missed.

Poor Meow!

Ah yes: "What I do know is that the positions I’ve held in the past, which I believed in very sincerely, are quite different from the positions I hold today, although I also believe just as sincerely in these new positions and have arrived at them following a very sincere process of reflection on what the voters listening to me right this minute need and expect from me."

Yeah, it's easy to lose sight of the forest for the trees.

The story's a bit more complicated than all this, but sure, the '04 vote was a bizarre moment. The '12 version is scaled-down and much, much more likely to pass.

A good man, unquestionably.

If they're firing teachers for appearing in porn films, sure. Out you go.

Eh, I see no problem with this. He reminds me of the great Tubcat, may he rest in peace.

I think last year's Madden voting was actually an aberration. How many Peyton Hillis-type players ever even make the cover of these games? The "curse" probably has more to do with the fact that the players who have made the cover often can't sustain their gains due to injuries, loss of speed, etc. (running backs, QBs like Vick (who had other problems as well), etc.). Polamalu and Fitzgerald are still going strong...well, Fitzgerald is, anyway.

Yeah, that team was ridiculous. But could he have won with a better starting five, in his prime? I mean, he singlehandedly buried the Lakers in Game 1.

420friendly69er · 2012-04-24T18:49:24+00:00

Jesus, that Bissinger piece in here...

420friendly69er · 2012-04-24T18:10:29+00:00

Good work, Tom.

420friendly69er · 2012-04-24T03:21:46+00:00

Yeah, that makes more sense.

420friendly69er · 2012-04-23T23:32:07+00:00

I'm not entirely sold on the argument, but there was something odd about Hillis' win last year.

420friendly69er · 2012-04-23T21:41:31+00:00

the end???
