Bob Ryan is a class act. When I was a young sports journalist, just starting out in the business, he was one of the few names I ran into who acted like a human being instead of a collosal jerk.

I am too old for this crap

Working on Saturday night sucks, as if you didn't already know.

I need one of those cushy CEO jobs where you get paid millions until it turns out you were cooking the books -- and then you do a little perp walk and find Jesus. I can do the time standing on my head, as long as I have a Swiss bank account to come home to.

I appreciate the effort with the third line, but in Method acting we call this "indicating" and in haiku we call it zenfuka. Back to the drawing board!

Well, that's what you get for succumbing to the temptations of the dark side of the force.

You can always join the loyal order of the Jedi by doing plaintiff's work. In by 10:00 out by 7:00 and you either make 50 k or 750 k depending on how fast you run.

I don't have the right suits to do plaintiffs' work, and I'm no good at the warehouse sales.

Who wants to work until 7:00?

This kid sounds like what you'd get if you mated Slater to Ferris Bueller. (The "Dazed and Confused" Slater, not the "Saved by the Bell" Slater. Don't be difficult.)

This shouldn't be a problem. You're a white guy, right? What Republican party chapter are you in? Let me know your precinct leader's name, and we'll get you set.

What kind of company do you wanna run? Junk bond company or telecommunications? Oh. If you can show you disenfranchised 20 minority votes last November, you have a shot at Energy company CEO. I mean, don't get your hopes up- Cheney's real particular about those positions, but still you'd be eligible.

If I e-mail you the hack that "lost" 60,000 dem electronic votes in Ohio, do I have a shot at some of that sweet Afghan pipeline action?

Those guys don't work until 7:00. They do make assloads of money. Or none.

I'm not saying he's not a nice guy, I'm saying he is really, really wrong about Vermont. It's not like it's that big of a surprise that they did as well as they did in this year's tournament, and it wasn't that heard to see it coming.
