Will Pats rush often? You never know with Belichick
SI.com - Nov 3, 2006

A double-header from James of Monroe, La. He says he heard Joe Theismann on a radio interview and he sounded thoughtful and knowledgable. What happens to him Monday night? First of all, I think it overwhelms him and he loses track of stuff he says. Then again, I don't think the ESPN folks want thought and knowledge. They want shtick, nonsense stuff, anything that will trap a viewer by any means possible. Our friend Nabokov had a Russian word for that. It was called "poshlost." The trite, the cheap and banal.
