So basically he played until the point where it mattered if you were any good?

If you go to Deadspin for your political coverage you should not be considered well informed.

Sure is!

“So basically he played” yes.

Did he say how good he was?

He didn’t play high school football, but junior high. Maybe Gardner got confused.

Jeez, on that lead photo, the area around his head is so pixelated it looks like a bad photoshop job. Or, maybe it was his Halloween costume.

Is this important because he will be able to run faster to start his vacation than anyone else. Who the f**** cares if he played football? The only thing slightly significant would be if he had any head injuries.

If you say you played high school football, it normally means you played varsity ball, not junior jayvee. It’s not about talent at that level – it’s about commitment and determination. You don’t have to be good to make the team. You just have to show that you really care about it. Clearly, Cory did not, and yet he saw nothing wrong with using it as a reference. That’s about as disingenuous as you can get.

So he was JV? I still hate him. He’s horrible.

"“That’s a low blow,” he (Pfalmer) said. “I’ll tell you this: I’m proud to know him. He’s a very intelligent man. I don’t have nothing against him. He’s one of my best students.”

Sounds to me like Gardner is still in school and trying to gradeate! That thar school must have high standurds!

Yuma Colorado?

I recall blowing though Yuma Colorado the first time on tour with the band from Denver to Lincoln Nebraska. There was a sign in Yuma that read, “You just drove 140 miles from Somewhere and it’s 350 miles to Somewhere Else.”

If you do visit, make sure you hit Fernando’s Mexican Food located up on Main.

~OGD~

Con man cory is still a cold blooded liar…
