Just ten more days until the return of the Nigel Tufnel avatar!

I stand corrected. Apparently Huard has been listed as No. 80 for three weeks now. No one ever noticed and they didn’t pull the trick play until this week.

Did you all catch USC’s fake punt last night? USC’s punter wears no. 80. And before the game, Riley had his backup QB Sam Huard switch to no. 80, setting up the play where the QB goes in to impersonate the punter. Threw for a first down on 4th and 6. Shady or genius...

Love you brother!

Where’s all of yesterday’s snark? It doesn’t even sound like you GB!

If the interview is any indication, the bolded seems to be one of Scott Galloway’s central themes.

What you say rings true. But the examples you provide weren’t things that were causing unhappiness. I haven’t read the book yet, but it seems like the title may be a bit misleading if the themes of the book are the things discussed in the interview. It isn’t about young men not being manly or...

Re your first point about capitalism, I don’t think he was making an argument in favor of more bars. He was simply stating an observation that with declining numbers of social settings for young people to interact, it is creating further isolation for young men. As for your second point about...
