From @theathletic.com: Russell Wilson, at 5-foot-11, was never supposed to have this kind of career as a professional quarterback, our columnist writes. As he potentially makes the final start of his NFL career, he deserves everyone's respect. nyti.ms/4pkFB8K

A friend reminded me today that even in darkness there is light. This is light. Fan of @theonion.com since I saw the headline "Pen stolen from Witte Hall" at UW-Madison in 1989.
By some miracle, The Onion is incredibly close to becoming one of the ten biggest print newspapers by circulation in America.

It’s because it’s fucking great. I mean, look at this thing.
