Sports Surplus

I was browsing Best Buy yesterday looking for a cheap laptop to take to Chicago. I asked the salesman to point me towards the cheapest laptop and he took me over to a shitty Toshiba. Next to me at that machine was someone else- a familiar voice- looking for a laptop. He said he needed one with Microsoft Word because he does a lot of typing. He was wearing an oversized #68 football jersey that read "WHITLOCK". It was the man himself, Jason Whitlock.

When I saw Jason Whitlock hosting PTI, The Sports Reporters, and Jim Rome is Burning, all in consecutive weeks, I figured he had blown off Kansas City for Bristol. But, apparently he got some vacation time, which does explain why his articles covering the Chiefs have been a little bit better, or more respectable, lately.
