Mr. Unlucky’s Almanack

Do the aphorisms and observations of Benjamin Franklin and his Poor Richard still apply, or are we beyond hope and salvation?



Aren’t we all sick of baseball stars who apologize for causing "distractions" or for making unspecified "mistakes"?

Why can’t they just say, "Okay, I admit that I took steroids and HGH and cheated on my wife everytime I was on the road"?

In the case of Roger Clements, the answer is that he’s Biff from Back to the Future, a bully who thinks he can intiminate his way into the Hall of Fame.  I agree with Michael Wilbon’s assessment that Clements is nothing but a "fraud and a bully."

The only hall you’re going into, Roger, is the Hall of Shame–or maybe a slammer?
