    Might as well lock this thread. We have a winner!

    Two more thoughts:

    1) The day McCain announced Palin as his running mate and few of us had much clue as to who she was. I'd love to have been a fly on the wall when Glen Rice turned on the TV and suddenly saw her face on CNN. Can you imagine the phone calls he was making to his friends?

    2) What is particularly awesome about this is the pure randomness of it. Glen Rice? The only thing that could make it better is if Danny Tartabull's name emerges.

    The author writes that after college Mrs Palin developed a 'fetish' for black men.

    Yeah, that's just sick and perverted. A white woman sleeping with a black man. There should be a law against that kind of thing.

    It's entirely possible Rice didn't remember nailing her.

    What do Sarah Palin and Bo Schembechler have in common? Both desired a Michigan man.

    Well, many of her most ardent supporters would agree with you there.

    You are mistaking lurid tabloid interest for political interest.

    Here's what Bill Walton had to say...

    "Sarah Palin had an intimate relationship with Glen Rice in the 80s. Rice tried to resist but he was never one to stop anyone from scoring."

    As were discussing in the newsroom, what is this was a pattern?

    Christine O'Donnell and Ray Allen?
    Michele Bachmann and Tractor Traylor?

    The world needs to know these things!

    No I'm not.

    That's what makes it sexist. There is no lurid tabloid interest in who Barack Obama slept with 25 years ago.

    Men -- especially powerful men -- are expected to fuck everything that moves. It's no big deal.

    But, as a 20-something-year-old, Palin fucked a black man and I'm supposed to be shocked?

    Sarah Health doing her sports report in 1988. Michigan basketball highlights start 41 seconds in. Wonder what was on her mind while was reading the copy?
