This is what I'm talking about though, Jason. You see, here's this black player and he's mouthing off at a white guy. You see what I'm saying? A white guy of authority, he's mouthing off. This is the problem we're having in today's game. He's a dirty field because he has a whistle? That's right. Wow. That's right. I have a whistle too. Do you have it with you? Yeah. Okay.

You know, once upon a time, air travel was a pleasant experience. People got dressed up. The food was good. And if someone put their elbow on your armrest, you could burn it with your cigarette. Of course, nowadays, travel sucks. And it's only getting worse.
