[QUOTE=storyteller0910] \*Why, God? \* [/QUOTE] Easterbrook’s column is smart, funny, covers a wide range of topics (not all of them related to football) and always features a cheer-babe photo or three. What’s not to like? His political opinions are generally conservative, but not maliciously so. ---

His political opinions are generally conservative, but not maliciously so. [/QUOTE] Oh, I don’t care about his political opinions and while I find his treatment of the cheerleaders creepy and unsettling (we _get_ it, Gregg, you think they’re hot but you’re really interested in their minds but you’re really not, we _get_ it), that’s not the problem, either. The problem is I disagree strongly with both of your first two adjectives. \*He \*may be smart, but his column is not - it’s intellectually dishonest and lazy - and he may be funny, but his column is not. IMO, and all that. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/pouring-it-on-nfl/426999.md?page=5)
