I always thought Theismann was an arrogant fuck, but whether that made him bad at his job or not, I don't know. I guess his job was to talk about football, and since he played in the NFL and I didn't, it's hard for me to say he's a bad judge of the game.

Little while back I spent a couple months in Indianapolis for work, and was bummed that a town of such a respectable size offered little-to-nothing, as far as a music scene goes.
