"This is not how an adult grieves the murder of someone he calls a friend. This is how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish."

Of course, w/ Disney out of the B1G media contract, this is relatively easy for me as I don't care so much about the SEC and ACC, the two conferences where Disney is the prime media partner.
