Reilly breaks off China

Yes. This makes perfect sense.

These sportswriters need to get off their lazy asses! Lean on their well-placed Chinese sources in the Communist government, cut through the red tape that gets those pansy-ass, garden-variety Chinese political dissidents jailed or killed, and get to the bottom of that all-important gymnastics scandal.

I just know it would work. China may not care about any political pressure from any other source around the world, but by God, if the No. 2 columnist from a mid-sized daily starts poking around the forbidden corridors of Beijing, China will bow!

 

Absolutely. Who ya got in mind?

 

I dunno. Miklasz?

 

Nah.... gotta be someone the Reds will never expect of practicing journalism...

 

(Don't say Albom, don't say Albom, don't say Albom!)

Uh, Album?

(Shit! Slappy's going to blow his wad!)

 

screamin A? jim Lampley? Bernie miklasz? rick O'Reilly? Michael hiestand?

 

Uh, I meant Biff Album. He works at the Denver Plain Dealer.

 

Good, because I'd hate to think you were talking about the guy at the Detroit Post.

 

No. Never.

 

Why not? He's as little as some of the Chinese gymnasts.

 

But they've been to the Wall without writing a whole column saying "LOOKIT MEEEEE"
