It’s pretty cool that the Eagles best player ever is an offensive lineman. Loser franchises have QBs as their best all-time players but true ball knowers understand it’s really about the line of scrimmage.

Yesterday, WIRED learned that Madison Square Garden was suing us for our accurate reporting. We stand by our work. That’s why we’re removing the paywall from two of the MSG stories they don’t want you to read, making them free for everyone.

Mr. LeBron James...you have lived a full and varied life. But have you seen a man eat a rotisserie chicken on an industrial pier? Have you met an Elmo who drums? Have you scaled a greased pole atop the shoulders of other men?
