I Anonymously Make People Merry
By Matt Sussman | Mar 3, 2008 | Filed Under Media
I’ve been called many things. This is a new one, though, regarding the Dan Patrick move to Sports Illustrated and the Rick Reilly hop over to ESPN:
Minutes after the Patrick-for-Reilly switch was announced, one of the merrymakers over at the Web site Deadspin quipped that ESPN had filled its “smart-alecky, middle-aged white guy quota.”
I wonder who that fellow was? He sure sounds like a guy who would make people merry. Moreover, I want to know which guy in that illustration is the merrymaker. Is it the yellow shirt-black pants combo? That seems like merry outfit to me.
(Truth be told, the article is a pretty decent read.) ◼ New York Times

I knew there was *something* about merry, but I couldn’t place it.
