From today's article...
"As Mr. T so eloquently put it, "I pity the fool."
The quotation came to mind after reading an ill-tempered letter-to-the-editor in the "Voice of the People" section of a recent issue of The Herald-Dispatch.
To say the letter was inaccurate would be a gross understatement. Besides being factually incorrect, the author also showed absolutely no grasp of comprehending the concepts he was railing against.
More the shame, the author actually is employed as an educator at Marshall.
Egads.
As sobering as that fact of life might be, it is nonetheless true. Let's hope and pray for the sake of his students that he knows more about the subject he teaches than he does about sports.
This is the crux of the matter.
Most people try to disguise their disdain and ignorance. But, alas, others wear it obtrusively as if it were an ill-conceived red badge of courage.
The author falls into the latter camp.
What more can I say that Mr. T hasn't already covered?"
