“That’s Newstastic!” The Chronicle of Sad Truths and Happy Denial http://deadspin.com/372409/chasing-jose-by-pat-jordan
I hate baseball, but you can't help but be spellbound by the supreme delusion and narcissism of this 'roid-raging a-hole. There's so much jaw-dropping nonsense in here it's staggering -- the whole gamut, from selling million dollar homes for stock in Mexican telecoms to referencing sexual conquests as "road beef." Beyond the crash-you-can't-look-away-from lead character, a large part of what makes this piece great is Pat Jordan is a terrific writer.
