Getting people to think

Terence Moore (24 year sports "journalist" for the AJC) states that his objective in writing is getting people to think. The only thing he's ever caused me to think is, "Damn this dude is one racist ass."

His M.O. has been creating a "story" (read a bunch of words together in a column) when there was no story by inserting the proverbial race card. Fortunately for us all, he's putting down the pen.

If you've not had the torture of reading his columns, google "Terence Moore Race" or "Racist." Here's one of my favorite editorial responses to a T-Mo column: "Terrence is the biggest racist POS in Atlanta. After 5 years of living in Atlanta and reading the AJC I would rather cut off my own nuts then read his garbage. " This was written in 2006, so after another 3 years of enduring "his garbage" this poor commenter is likely among the nut-less today. Here is an interesting article responding to one of his columns as well, brought to you by the good folks at "Every day should be Saturday."

Also, thanks to Mackie at BloggingPantsless for bringing this shit-canning to my attention.

Rejoice Atlanta sports readers, today is a day to celebrate.
