I believe one of the biggest problems with our shitty media -- the tendency to glorify mediocrity1 -- is epitomized by the sage words of Chuck Todd:
I kinda feel like Clete Boyer, the not so well-known third baseman for the New York Yankees in the early 1960s. Because the one thing you can’t take away from Boyer is this: he got to bat in the same lineup as Mickey Mantle. Well, I got to work with Tim Russert for a brief period of time; you can’t take that away from me.
Chuck Todd still sucks.
