    Saw the profile done by Soledad O'Brien for Bryant Gumbel's "Real Sports" on HBO. Guy seems like a real peach.

    On more than one occasion that female CEO seemed to bite her tongue before defending Portnoy. But the money's great, so keep on shoveling the b.s. about how he's on-brand and blah blah blah.

    From journalism/production standpoint, shouldnt they have run at least 30 secs of the interview with the Ria kid?

    Knowing that cutting it entirely gives an easy piece of criticism for the Minihanes of the world to latch on to and invalidate the entire piece, seems very foolish to leave that door wide open

    As much as I could watch Soledad O'Brien all day the most interesting story on that episode was Don Nelson growing weed.

    SI wrote that story a few years ago, but agreed. Nellie is very happy, and very hairy.

    Not to hijack this thread, but would you have believed me if I'd told you in 1987 that the guy in the fish tie would have his own weed farm?

    Yup. The looks on Soledad O'Brien's face were priceless. For both Portnoy and her.

    Much more important to convince people that you're about promoting the product, truth or principles be damned.
