Re: what a shmuck Holley is

["Cecil Wright" <cecil@hfx.eastlink.ca>]

Y'all need to get a grip.  Holley writes his opinion columns to raise the
ire of the readers who are faithful sportsfans.  His pieces are supposed to
infuriate you and get you to call in to shows like the Big Show and
complain.  You're not gonna tell me that there is ANY Globe sportswriter who
everybody agrees with 100% of the time.  Ryan?  Shag?  Hardly.
