According to producer (and former Kids in the Hall writer) Norm Hiscock, NBC still hasn't revealed where exactly P&R is going to air when it returns mid-season, a situation made even more ridiculous by the fact that they just picked up that steaming turd pile Outsourced for a full season. Is this any way to treat the show this very site rated the third-best of 2009-10?—BK

(I.e., exercises his right to refuse the backscatter scan.) I've heard theories that if we all followed this hero's example, the resulting snarl would force a rollback of the more arcane security procedures – but if obscene delays were likely to make that point, wouldn't it be made already?—JS

If I had a name as awesome as Mac Montandon, I probably wouldn't notice the spelling of lesser words like "pizazz" or "non-sequitur" either. (Though, admittedly, Montandon got a few more words right than this guy.)—JS

Posnanski feels that the reluctance to use more instant replay and the high-profile blown calls this postseason are beginning to hurt the legitimacy of the game. Can't say I disagree. (And I'm not saying that as a bitter Twins fan; they didn't need the umpires' help to lose.)—BK
