I dont think that would fly.

I dont think that would fly.

All this JFK file release discussion.

JFK Jr. would be President right now, wouldn't he? He might have been done already instead of Obama and Obama would be President now.

I don't like to speak ill of the dead, especially someone who by all accounts was a nice guy, but I'm pretty sure he was dumb as a stump.

He had a shot.

The blue-hairs and boomers would've reflexively pulled the lever for JFK's kid. Not like JFK was some sort of genius. Don't think there's anything he ever said or wrote in his life that wasn't ghost-written by Ted Sorensen.

His campaign would have barely gotten off the ground.

So qualified to be President then?

Canada is living the JFK Jr. fantasy we never got to have with Justin Trudeau. It probably would have been about the same: jogging shirtless along riverfronts and selling arms to the Saudis.

I needed to read this thread like I needed a hole in the head.

Michael Rapaport beefing with Simmons should be entertaining pod; but Rapaport's so hard to listen to on his own, it ends being a painful listen.

Well, some of us have been talking and, in our professional opinions, we believe you do need a hole - or two - in your head.

given the hyper-early publishing schedule of print magazines, that edition was prolly in the hopper before Junior took his dive in July that year. He was on the verge of selling-off George anyhow; or at least cashing out his interest so he could start his career in politics.

Bill Simmons has one of the guys who started the entertaining SPY Magazine on his most recent pod. Good interview, at least for Simmons. Who tends to go into interviews with specific, Sports-Guy questions and thus steps all over his interview subjects when they start getting into interesting topics that Simmons wasn't prepared to discuss. I still have some Spy magazine special editions in a box somewhere. One of em looks like a Cliff's Notes. I think it was Cliff Notes piss-take on the Brat-Pack novelists (Jay McInerney, Bret Easton-Ellis et al) .

Michael Rapaport beefing with Simmons should be entertaining pod; but Rapaport's so hard to listen to on his own, it ends being a painful listen.

His whole style is chump.

Didn't he fail the bar twice?

He failed it multiple times.

But at that time in his life he was a playboy banging a new chick nightly. That's not an exaggeration either. That's literal.
