I gave the movie Ali a second watch.

It is a subject worthy of a biopic IMO. There is some interesting stuff that happened (in contrast to, say, Johnny Cash, Walk the Line). I have some criticisms - but I did enjoy it more than the first time. I think a large part of that was a greatly increased awareness that I was viewing a chronicle of a sport going extinct.

I was like, oh yeah, once upon a time that was a thing.

That feeling was certainly magnified compared to 2001.

I was like, how quaint. As much as guise slugging each other in the head can be considered quaint.

Sez he's going into broadcasting.

I have to ask myself, do I care what he has to say? The answer is not really but then you have to look at how many people are already established in broadcasting and if I ask the same question, the answer is also not really.

So, you know, whatever I guess.
