Read MoreThe British End: Alabama Senatorial Blues
By Luke Haines There are journalists who get the plum assignments – all expenses paid trips to exotic locales to review the breakfast options in fancy hotels before a hard day’s parakiting and cocktails until dawn.

Read MoreShame, Football…A Ridiculous Man

Sure, it’ll get your heart rate up and it contains a lot of unexpected twists, but even looking at it too closely makes you feel like you need a shower and experiencing it firsthand feels like being constantly pelted with shit.…
