You Can Say "Circumcising Mosquitoes" On PTI, But You Can't Say It Thrice
The gentlemen on Pardon The Interruption exceeded the quota for the amount of times one can say some variation of the phrase "circumcising mosquitoes" on live television today. Cowlishaw, quoting (and imitating) Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, gets in two mentions, but Wilbon never gets his chance. These guys have all the fun, up until the mic gets pulled.

Thanks for your continued support of Deadspin. Go yell "circumcising mosquitoes" out the window, because you can.
