This kind of post is one of the reasons I read you every day. The LittleGreenFootball episode and ensuing antics is something I thought I'd never see. A blogger turning on his own cesspool is rare indeed. But considering Mr. Johnson resided over and encouraged said cesspool doesn't give him an out as far as I'm concerned.
