...started stacking its lineup with niche events--bull riding, arena football, Champ Car racing. The PBR paid the network for airtime, guaranteeing that nbc wouldn't lose money if no one tuned in. As it turned out, audiences liked watching corn-fed young dudes cling to enraged animals for dear life. "People want to see a big bad som'bitch hoof the s___ out of somebody," says Jerry Nelson, a top bull owner. "They want to see a little blood and guts."

But on the bright side: Pinker’s brain is as big as his mullet, if not as big as his ego, he’s a dynamic...
...Social things are usually fun. Dances, cocktail parties, getting to know people. Hmm, maybe this is the Core where I get to learn about interpersonal relationships. Maybe it’s the Core where I’ll find my one true love!ANALYSIS: Fuck.Turn that frown upside down, dear reader. Social Analysis isn’t the sexiest of Core categories, but it ain’t the dreariest either. (Hello, Moral Reasoning.) Besides, many of you won’t have to worry about it to begin with. Social Analysis 10 = Ec 10 = Harvard’s most...
