It's funny 'cause they're not attractive.

Moose Skowron was on 'Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me' a while ago. He was friggin' hilarious.

Best quote "We mighta had some cocktails in us back then, but we sure didn't take no steroids!"

He probably deserves his own FPP.

Most of these people aren't even unattractive, and some of the commentary associated is downright offensive, and I'd like to think I don't get offended easily.

George Foster was lurking in the parking deck, patiently waiting to rape you.

Are you fucking serious?

This is not the best of the web. It's probably a lot closer to the worst.

I dunno about insulting Bill Skowron. He would not brook your sass. The dude's probably eighty or ninety and I think he'd still up and take a swing at a dude for saying that.

also I blame seanbaby for this kind of thing. People think they can just turn out poorly thought out offensive nonsense and rake in page hits. That's not the case.

OK, clearly this is not working out. Delete away, I suppose.

I laughed, and liked it.

Sadly, I think it might be.
