Show Me the Thorazine

The big ESPN Super Bowl party brought out all the big stars…and the washed-up has-beens who forgot to take their antipsychotics.  No, I did not just call James Earl Jones a psychotic has-been…that’s Cuba Gooding, Jr. – what’s left of him, anyway.  I imagine Cuba is rooting for the Cardinals, the team his character Rod [...]

“Post-Partisan” Obama Rooting Openly for Steelers

Barack Obama is supposed to be the man to take us beyond partisanism and into a new day of cooperation (and everyone not having to eat hair and grass because they’re broke).  Apparently this spirit of across-the-aisle unity doesn’t extend to his feelings about football, however.  When it comes to the gridiron, Obama is all [...]
