They couldn't find anything remotely intelligent today, so they wrote their own featured comment. I DEMAND AN INVESTIGATION.

@44 in a Row:
As we reflect on the genesis of ESPN commenting, I would just like to congratulate me for being so fucking awesome during the attack on ESPN.
Seriously, what happened to all of that funny? I was on a roll that day, and I've had zilch since then.
