I really like Marcus Hahnemann
Dear ESPN,
I know you are pushing the World Cup like Americans actually care about soccer, but there is no way you hiring Klinsmann as a studio analyst is the 8th most important thing that happened in the sports world today. If you want a soccer story, what about the fact that Clint Dempsey is going to be the first American to play in a club final in Europe.

Priest: What is your favorite thing about movies?
Leitch: When you walk into a theater and the lights go down, everything about you and your life melts away for a couple of hours. I fell in love with the movies when I saw “JFK” – a movie that has not aged well, though it’s still quite the technical achievement–at the age of 16, in 1991, at the Mattoon Cinema 1-2-3. Three hours into the movie, the film spool broke and the film stopped playing. It was like being woken up in the middle of the night with a bucket of ice poured over your head while a tuba played in your ear. I was hooked. I’ve been trying to recapture that experience ever since.
