    Moneyball for Morons (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    I have written before about the Chicago White Sox, their owner Jerry Reinsdorf, and some of their incredibly stupid trades over the years. You can probably tell that I am a lifelong White Sox fan. It is a curse worse than original sin. This is the team that traded Fernando Tatis Jr., the future perennial All-Star and MVP candidate, along with pitcher Erik Johnson for a fading veteran pitcher named James Shields in 2016. Shields was 34 years old and finished that season with a 6.77 ERA for Chicag

    Calling Bullshit on the Great American Surrender (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    If the business of America is business, as Calvin Coolidge reportedly said, then the answer to defeating cultural Marxism lies in our ability to do a better job in business than the Left. Ladies and gentlemen, that should not be difficult. But we do have to actually try. I don’t mean that we need to do a better job operating our family businesses, selling insurance, writing computer programs, or whatever else while we are at work during the day. I mean we need to do a better job practicing democ

    Men Don’t Hate Reading. They Hate Your Books. (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    There seems to be genuine bewilderment in the publishing industry as to why male readers would rather read the instructions on an airplane barf bag than a novel from the “Manager’s Selection” at Barnes & Noble. It’s a genuine mystery why male readers weren’t anxiously digging into The Lesbiana’s Guide to Catholic School over the summer. The story of a 16-year-old’s struggle with lesbianism, at a time when it seems that half of Gen Z has declared itself either gay, lesbian, bisexual, or of equivo

    We’re Not Listening Anymore (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Unless you are in Brooklyn, Madison, Wisconsin, San Francisco, or obviously Boston, you have probably noticed that young men have pretty much lost interest in serious dating. Oh, they will have sex when it is presented to them, they aren’t crazy. But in terms of a lifetime commitment and family, it’s not really possible to convince most thirty-something guys to get engaged, and marriage is right out of the question. The restaurants are full of single or divorced women, all glammed up and sitting

    Calling Bullshit on Universal Suffrage (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    When history looks back on the United States, I predict there will be three major criticisms. The first is that we spent money like drunken sailors on shore leave. The second will be that there isn’t a patch of dirt on the planet anywhere that our fearless leaders in Washington—who have been bent over for years by the weapons industry—haven’t declared that we have a vital national interest in. And perhaps the dumbest of them all is American women and their beta male accomplices declaring that mu
