    Boom is just continuing his gimmick of playing Pavlov's dog every time MacGregor rings a bell.

    I figured, just wanted to see if he would actually try to answer my question.

    I don't know about anti-establishment, but it did seem like he grabbed freely from the low-hanging fruit when talking about Americans' bigger-is-better mentality. McMansions and Monster Thickburgers are so a 2007 observation.

    Hey welcome back dd. Solid perspective on column. You raised some points that I had not considered.

    So which 489 teams would they add to make the Big 500?

    I think you and I just need to stick to our shared annoyance with Tom Verducci ignoring Clemens steroid use, because each of us has proven we cannot debate MacGregor's work from an unbiased POV.

    I didn't like it. Expanding a football conference is not akin, nor is it a slice, of the decline of western civilization. Break out the Jump To Conclusions mat.
