"un-just war" in Afganistan? Your kidding, right? Only one grammar nerd point: "You're," vice "your." A common mistake; better written as "You are", anyway.
Sorry, I'm an editor and that jumped right out. Otherwise, a great response.

I read the rest of her stuff. She's awful. She's like the last hour of a bad 4-hour sports talk radio show.

It's become blatantly obvious that the Dims can't differentiate between Iraq and Afghanistan. Their knee-jerk reaction is "Bush's War! Bush's War!" They're
parrots.

I hope Marshall, Will, and Holly go on a routine expedition to beat her ass. This has been bugging me for nearly 20 years...I just purchased season one of LotL on DVD, and I never could figure out why the words to the opening went like that..."Marshall, Will, and Holly"...the father's name was RICK. Their LAST name was Marshall. Given that, the words don't really make sense.

"What do you expect from a female sportswriter?"
You beat me to it and I suppose I'll be scourged for saying this, but why isn't she writing a cooking column and leaving the sports writing to a MAN? I will now duck under my desk.

I was thinking the other day...wouldn't it be nice if as many fans as possible show up for opening day this September with Tillman #40 jerseys on...a sea of white throughout all NFL stadia as a tribute to that remarkable guy.

I still believe the Media overplayed his sacrifice as a play on his celebrity while other fallen war heros are all but ignored. Which is made all the more sad because Tillman himself did his best to make himself just one of the troops, even refusing the Army's request to use his enlistment for recruiting and promotional purposes.

Make sure you bring a copy of ESPN the Magazine with you so you can catch up on all of the WNBA news.... :^)

Eclectic, to say the least. :) I also purchased season one of WONDER WOMAN at the same time. Debra Winger in the Wonder Girl outfit jump-started puberty for me. ;)

Only grammar nerds use semi colons in there they're their responses.

These liberal scumbag journalists continue to amaze me.
They deride and undermine the very military that fights, protects, and dies, so that they have the freedom to deride and undermine.
Their stupidity and ignorance is of biblical proportion.

GG, you did a great job. The question I have is, why is Tom Cruise doing this? Seems like it would be more appropriate for Bill Bidwell or someone with the Arizona Cardinals who was a teammate of Pt Tillman. This is, after all, a sports oriented show.
