It is more than okay to be August Landmesser. It might come at the price of your life or physical freedom, but it will save your soul.

Just once, the college student who wants to make up a semester's worth of work in five days in December should do all the work for the semester in the first week of September--and then go play.

That will impress me.

Were I the editor of the AJC (or giving Mike Luckovich ideas), my headline for the latest 'Clean Old Fashioned Hate' would be 'Dog Eats Car.'

Editor left open four pages in production to ensure that this book engages whateverthehell controversy emerges from the 12-team playoff. Given how Georgia is playing, there will be controversy.

Buy the book so I can write sports and fiction fulltime.

Random fact: America's oil patch population (Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana) is roughly equal to the population of Canada, and also that of Ukraine.
