    Too bad Mike Shula wasn't born on the 4th of July.

    Nick Saban was born on Halloween. True story.

    In a sick, twisted way, you have to admire such a complete and utter lack of self awareness.

    Eh, 9-11 happens every year. A dead man only turns 100 once.

    Olbermann had a field day last night with the Wisconsin golf course 9/11 special.

    Can't wait to see what he does with this.

    Esquire offers up an even bigger fuck-up. I mean, monumental.

    Esquire getting butt-hurt over it doesn't help.

    Yeah, they could have handled that much better.

    I could see how it could happen. I don't know why they wouldn't simply apologize.

    No worse than working for a podunk newpaper that sold special anniversary editions that contained mostly wire stories and a few thin local stories. Profit in the name of rememberance, or something. Oh, wait, that was my old place.
