    I loved Play, but you would have to pull out David Foster Wallace.


    Pretentious. Hack


    Yeah, I know many people were crushed when he died, but he was a hack. There. I said it. And I'm not even Chuck Woodling.

    @HirsheysKissMyArse: I'm not sugar coat this in witty banter that mimics an inimitable style:


    You are an idiot.

    That was like when I tried to get Noun magazine off the ground. It was brilliant. Every article was going to be completely devoid of the verbs, descriptors, and gerunds that poison the vapid everyday drivel that the mainstream media puts out everyday. Sadly, it only lasted 17 years until it was bought out by Pennypress and turned into fill-in puzzles.

    Yes, Play, a heretofore unheard of concept for a sports magazine.
