It wasn't just that the argument's premise was an assault on everything good and right in this world, but the writing was so good it made me actually like reading it.

I can only imagine how frustrated the LA Lakers and Kobe Bryant must feel right now. I almost needed to tape the remote to my hand so it didn't end up through my tv.
