...After two glorious months, my weekly ritual of abusing my column-writing privileges by ripping Dartmouth’s football team for its self-loathing, doormat style of play came to a close on that date. With the end of the Ivy League season, I was left with no contemptible Ancient Eight athletic program to unleash my misguided fury and disgust upon...

Their riveting vocal abilities are not racially based. NFL commentators have had the VOG sound, as did the late movie-trailer announcer Don LaFontaine and Robert Mitchum on the "Beef: It's What's for Dinner" TV spots. Those guys were white. Kinsley should do a bit more research before he puts his fingertips to the keyboard...
