Landmark ruling Title IX is getting a lot of (deserved) attention from ESPN and others these days. The Worldwide Leader has recently issued a series of documentaries in line with its acclaimed 30 for 30 series but with a special focus: "Nine for IX." Tune in.
In the meantime, it's worth digging out a golden oldie from the Idiots' stash. I will not post the lyrics; they are too long to type, and it takes the fun out of listening.
It's the sad story of a protagonist who can never be satiated by sports or sex. Third verse may well be appreciated by Mr. KQ.
No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation . . .

The 30 for 30 on the tragic life of free diver Audrey Mestre is a fascinating look into a bizarre world.
No title for a "Title IX" post? Well played.
"The Future Legend of Johnny Football" is a must read on the Grantland site.
I can always spot a Greasetruck-produced song based on its Soundcloud graph.
last monday i was flippin through the channels in my china hotel room and came across Get Shorty....I watched the latter half. dennis farina steals each of his scenes - he's easy to enjoy watching, or was rather. i just found out he died last week...monday in fact. weird.
"They say the fucking smog is the fucking reason you have such beautiful fucking sunsets."
"I'm from Miami fuckin beach and you want to show me the fuckin ocean?"
I bet Gary Player isn't going to watch Nine for IX.

greasetruck!
nothing clears the martha wood dining room out like a marathon session of random idiots and greasetruck songs.
so...NOW do you guys want to go to Mulligans?
Chris Mullin turns 50 today. I feel old.
Seeing Bill Simmons use Midnight Run quotes in an article makes me wince the same way I do when I see 50 y/o dudes with popped collars on their golf shirts.
midnight run. charles grodin and robert deniro?
that's the one! i think i loved that movie when i was 18.
Did anyone actually listen to the song?
listened to the first third. it made me laugh.
i have now listened to some of the song.
I listened to it and am honored to be mentioned in both a post and a comment by Clarence and TR, respectively.
Percy Harvin to have hip surgery. The guy absolutely cannot maintain physical health for any truly prolonged stretch of time. It's remarkable. And shitty.
I just read the Harvin article, too bad for him. It also says that "wide receiver Sidney Rice is in Switzerland to have treatment on his knee." What can they do in Switzerland that they can't do in the US? Replace his ligaments with chocolate and cuckoo clock springs?
I think it's similar to why Kobe went to Germany for his knees a couple of summers ago. Blood spinning and such, I believe.
teej - free smoothies at the union station jamba juice today. grab me one and bring it to the beach tomorrow. thanks in advance.
Are you a collar-popper, Mr. KQ?
We definitely have centrifuges in the US. I think athletes go to Europe for something a bit more potent than their own stem cells.
Can't say I disagree with you, Z.
