Shirley Povich writing in 1962, with the most immaculate burn conceivable of the Redskins awful, vile owner George Preston Marshall, the last NFL owner to insist on an all white roster: "Jim Brown, born ineligible to play for the Redskins, integrated their end zone three times yesterday." RIP WaPo.

Here's a piece I wrote about him for Oxford American a few years back. oxfordamerican.org/web-only/mtv...

Good timing. This might be Dobson’s best game as a Hab 👇

Suzuki rightfully said after Pgh loss that his line was bad. It’s no better tonight. Rare flash of anger by the captain when he slammed his stick against the boards after Bolduc missed him with an easy pass.

Shouldn’t score from there. No screen. Fowler knows it. Otherwise he had a great period. But 14, 13, 20, 48, 93 & 8 have to be better with the puck.
On Bruins third PP of the first period Alex Steeves is left alone in right circle and wires a wrist shot past Fowler to give Boston a 2-1 lead heading into intermission

Habs have gotten away with 3 possible penalties tonight. Not that they should be called. But they normally are.

When you think back to 2005 after the lockout and the pressure on 87 (and 8) to help reset the NHL, Sidney Crosby has blown away expectations which seemed unrealistic to begin with. And he’s been a perfect ambassador for the game on and off the ice. Jean Béliveau-like.

The Insider with Russel Crowe & Al Pacino is worth a watch right now. Directed and co-written by Michael Mann.
Hours before 60 Minutes was set to air a story on deportees who were sent by the Trump administration to prison in El Salvador, describing “brutal and torturous conditions,” 60 Minutes announced that it has pulled the segment and will air it in the future.
