    This guys must have been a ghost co-writer on "Freakonomics", with all the unconnected, mildly interesting vignettes he is stringing together to tell a story that none of the parts tell.

    "Hamlet talked about that famous question: What is it to be? "


    Signifying his intention to move the union in a more aggressive direction than his predecessor, he then held up Gene Upshaw's skull and stated "Alas, poor Eunuch, I knew him, Horatio!

    He's visiting all the teams? If I were a prominent labor leader, I'd avoid the Meadowlands.

    I saw an interview Real Sports did with him on HBO. He seemed like a decent enough guy and someone who's willing to fight for his members. Coming from the corporate world, he probably took a huge pay cut to take this job. That being said, some where along his fancy education and training someone should have taught him how to cater your presentation to your audience.

    @Paul.B.Dodd: Good idea. For example, your Deadspin audience prefers sophomoric and obvious jokes, not sober sincerity.

    The cop who caught me in the bushes behind the Delta Gamma house also quoted Hamlet: "Aye, there's the rub."

    President Nicolas Sarkozy addressed both houses of parliament for the first time in 150 years. "That doesn't seem like that big of a deal," said Smith, "except the last person to do that was Napoleon."


    Really, which Napoleon? Because the Associated Press said this last occurred in 1873. Napoleon I was dead, Napoleon II was dead, while Napoleon III was alive...until January 9 when he died, in exile, in England.

    @Chuck Knoblockhead: I think he meant Napoleon Johnson, who was the janitor and turned on the microphone late one night while sweeping up: "Now batting-ing-ing, Napoleon Johnson-son-son!"

    If you remember any part of that soliloquy...


    ...your name is not DeMaurice Smith, apparently.

    "[Hamlet] was a brother, he was father, he was husband, he was a son."
