A Less-Worshipful Review of the Recent Career of 'Jackass Jack'
"(H)e really came undone in the heat of the wild card race. The once-endearing crustiness started sounding mean and petty. His constant cigar-smoking and gum-chewing suddenly seemed like a weird oral fetish. And his decisions, literally pitch perfect two years ago, began to trigger wicked flashbacks to Jeff Torberg, the IQ-wanting fellow he replaced." (BrowardNewTimes)

Torberg?
The "Torberg" part is funny - especially since it's immediately followed by an IQ jab.
That's a really strongly worded article. Does that appear in print in the New Times? I've never seen that paper before.
I just picked up a copy. The article's right there, starting on page 14. And it says 'Torberg' in the print edition, too.
Cool. I'll have to pick it up too.
I guess they're like us - they don't have professional copy editors. :-)
