T.J. and Bill: A Couple of Righteous Dudes

So, T.J. Simers thinks Packer fans are “suckers” for buying Packer stock. I always thought the Packers were unique because they were fan-community owned. But, I guess the football world is a lot better off with owners like Al, Georgia, Jerry and Art. Gee, thanks for straightening me out, T.J.

Many of your correspondents apparently can’t stand T.J. Simers. So why do they read him?

How to write a column, by Bill Plaschke:

1. Odd Day: Pick a coach/player you don’t like and righteously demand he quit/retire.

2. Even Day: Pick an underprivileged child/forgotten athlete and righteously align yourself with his/her cause/struggle.

3. Write 50 words you like to hear yourself righteously say (complete sentences optional) and repeat them over and over and over again.

4. Send righteous clipping to Pulitzer Committee at Columbia University.
