...Athletes often come out of nowhere, give you a surprising season or two, then take their rightful place back in obscurity. Just three years after his second MVP award, Warner was steaming down this path, and people barely blanched. "Of course," they said to themselves, "a stock boy could never be Brett Favre." Warner started throwing atrocious interceptions, developed a chronic fumbling problem, suffered a bad concussion. Warner was already in his early 30s, that's octogenarian in quarterback years. The Rams dumped him; he signed with the New York Giants in 2004, only to be replaced by rookie...
...never the guy who made you drop your sandwich. Unlike Favre, he wasn't the improvisational maestro, or train wreck, that kept you glued to his every move.

An inquiry panel of career diplomats and academics was never likely to dent his composure. ("They're sitting there like chickens," squawked an exasperated audience member during a break from proceedings.) Yet Blair's light grilling still produced a major eye opener: as opponents of the Iraq conflict waited in vain for an apology or some gratifying symptom of inner...
