Bill Simmons’ column is exceptional today, even for Simmons; it’s laden with gems, but my favorite has to be his analysis of Blind Date’s Roger Lodge:
I also love the fact that Roger Lodge can host a trashy show like this, then go on "Rome is Burning" and argue about the Pistons-Pacers melee with Jim Lampley for five minutes. Who’s more versatile than him? He’s like the Jose Oquendo of cable TV.
