    TMQ is back

    http://espn.go.com/page2/s/tmq/020813.html

    Greg also disses Signs:

    Very mysteriously, people are paying good money to see this: In the Mel Gibson movie "Signs" -- the slowest-moving thriller of all time -- Gibson has an enormous field of corn that's "high as an elephant's eye" and ready for immediate harvest. Yet he does no farming. No agricultural implements of any kind are visible anywhere, and Gibson performs not a moment's worth of farm work. Where did this corn come from? That, not the crop circles, is the real mystery of the movie.

    I'm in your debt McCullough. I've been looking for TMQ to reappear on Slate, I must've missed the switch.

    Me too - that was some great writing. I knew Leaf was bad ... But THAT bad takes a lot of work. And the Mother whose kid was chased out of school was definitely a cutie. Infinitely better then Chelsea Clinton

    Actually, if you are a fan of sports at all, Bill Simmons (the heart of Page2) is a RIOT. Him and TMQ make life worth living some mornings...

    Disney told him to take a hike after a particular New Republic column he badly wrote appeared to compare Michael Eisner and Disney has Nazis or representative of the Holocaust or something similar, in an equally awful overview of Kill Bill, which he had obviously not even seen.
