"He was euchred out of a well-deserved Pulitzer, but I think he was prouder to win the national award named for one of his idols, Baltimore newspaper legend H. L. Mencken," said Keith George, the now retired Press & Sun-Bulletin courts reporter.
In 1890, working with Republican majorities in both houses of Congress, Harrison pushed hard for something called the Federal Elections Bill, the brainchild of Henry Cabot Lodge and George Frisbie Hoar, the two senators from the Commonwealth (God save it.) It would have allowed federal circuit judges to appoint federal election supervisors for the purpose of making sure nobody, but especially African-American citizens, was getting euchred out of their right to vote by some guy in a county clerk’s office.
The public strategy of the refs union is to draw the very short line between the quality of officiating and the health of the players, which is smart, even if Goodell long ago exhausted everyone’s “Aha! Hypocrisy!” reserves on the subject of player safety. But no one’s running to the barricades (vật chướng ngại) on the refs’ behalf now; no one’s going to throw any bricks when they get euchred out of their pension (tiền trợ cấp, lương hưu) program, either. (That’s right: We’re talking about honest-to-God pensions, not 401(k)s. Just the phrase “defined-benefit pension” seems like something out of another, hardier America. Put that in your John Facenda voiceover.) This is simply too good a time to be a fan, and the stakes are way too low—less than 1 percent of its total revenue, remember—for anyone to care too deeply about the plight of the zebras.
