- Google has officially acquired Motorola Mobility.
- I wonder if this has ever happened before: the same fan caught back-to-back home run balls.
- The results of this study should surprise nobody: according to the Flesch-Kincaid readability test, the grade level of Rick Reilly's writing is the lowest of sportswriters tested, with a level of 5.2. Obviously, the reason for this low rating is up for debate, but I choose to interpret it (likely inaccurately) as Rick Reilly being stupid. Also, I bet the grade level of my "writing" is even lower.
- Funbag.
- Close out your day with a couple of Veep-related PSAs. Fun!
... OK only one PSA and an outtake. Still good enough.
i'm not really sure what mobility does but how're motorola doing whatever mobility did without mobility
ReplyDeletei've never caught a home run or foul ball some people have all the luck
ReplyDeletemy f-k is off the charts because i don't punctuate
ReplyDeletei never remember to pay attention during the opening credits but i always catch some glimpses of what's going on that makes it seem like she was running for president and then her campaign collapsed and she settled for veep -- they should elaborate on that or maybe they did since i didn't actually look at the rest of her youtube channel -- can you back me up on that or am i crazy
ReplyDeletei guess i should point out that journos are typically encouraged to write around the 5th grade level just in terms of conveying information but that doesn't undermine the possibility -- or reality -- of rick reilly's stupidity
ReplyDeleteYeah, I kind of figured as much, which is why I made sure to point out that I was probably wrong (or at the very least making an unfair assumption) about Reilly's intelligence. It could just as easily mean that his audience is stupid. Or both, which I do honestly believe.
ReplyDeleteThe intro shows that she's running for president, but has to settle for VP - you are correct. The funny part about it is that her facial expression goes from giddy/optimistic with the "Selina could win election!" headline to sad with the "Meyer settles for vice president" headline.
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched her youtube channel, and I don't think they've said much about her failed campaign. I agree, it could make for an interesting story. Especially with her seemingly strained relationship with the president (and the first lady, heh).
i wouldn't even feel bad if they cancelled it but right now i don't mind watching it one bit -- limbo
ReplyDeleteOf the shows I watch, it's one that I enjoy more, so I hope it sticks around for at least a little longer. But the formula already needs a bit of a change.
