Here is one of the things I love about the US. In the US sports radio is one of the few places in general where you can hear an intellectual discussion that includes talk about empirical data (including stats) and theory all used in support of arguments. Go figure. You go Colin Cowherd.Where I, Ron, blog on a variety of different subjects--social theoretical, historical, cultural, political, social ethical, the media, and so on (I got the Max Weber, the Mark Twain, and the Stephen Leacock in me)--in a sometimes Niebuhrian or ironic way all with an attitude. Enjoy. Disagree. Be very afraid particularly if you have a socially and culturally constructed irrational fear of anything over 140 characters.
