I made an audible groan on this one. Well done.

Lance Armstrong is a big one.

I think Ballon Boy's parents more than balloon boy himself, unless that kid did something later in life. His parents - especially his dad - was just awful

Joe, hate watching the opening and closing ceremonies is a household tradition for our family going back decades. Embrace the weird and learn to love (and hate love) the unknown

whatever stress I feel during the baseball postseason, hockey, even for regular season games, is exponentially worse

Football needs to end

"...They want to be able to bring their kids and be affordable and they want safety and they want to have a good experience, so they get all the entertainment stuff or whatever. The purists, you know, it’s just straight winning.”
