    So as to be politically correct, I'm referring to him as Stewart "Racial Epithet Referring to Chinese People."

    The only way you'd be rooting for him to lose if you were on the writing staff of fucking Slate.

    PREVIOUS SSW

    Old people cannot compete at the highest levels of a major sport.

    NEW SSW

    Old people can almost compete at the highest levels of golf.

    BUT WAIT, THERE'S LESS

    Stay tuned for my 10,000-word recap of Watson's run at the Open, written in the style of a French prostitute living with a bohemian commune in 1760s Vienna.

    inspiring legions of other old athletes to strap it on for one last go: Troy Aikman

    He must be bored in his retirement to consider such a role reversal at this stage in life.

    @MarkKelsosMigraine: No, no, look at the trend here - it has to be someone who has overcome some sort of overblown "adversity" and is a darling of the media that will make for great column fodder.

    David Eckstein, one gritty hit away from the cycle after his return from the disabled list, ruptures his Achillies trying to leg out a triple. The Padres training staff rushes the field and immediately euthanizes him.

    @DeepFriar:

    I like to believe that Chris Cornell has been dead for about 3 years, and it's some robot that has been touring with Linkin Park and recording with Timbaland.

    @Kid Canada: Actually he died in 1997 in a plane crash similar to the one that killed all the members of Metallica in 1988 and David Cross in 2002. At least that's what I tell my therapist.

    The Doctor added: "Stewart's repression of traumatic childhood memories, his feelings of sexual inadequacy, and his subconscious urges to kill were affecting his game."
