I hate the phrase “have to” as in “you have to watch this show” or “you have to find this funny.” A former co-worker would always respond to comments like that with a surly, “I don’t have to do anything.” I came to adopt that philosophy, if only to upset those who get personally wounded if I have my own opinion on things.<\/p>\n
That said, you have to read Deadspin<\/a> today. If you like baseball or humor or kittens or references to the hands of six-week-old fetusus, you just have to indulge in the goodness of the FJM reunion<\/a>.<\/p>\n What is an FJM reunion, you might ask? FJM is short for Fire Joe Morgan<\/a>, a web site dedicated to eviscerating people will silly theories about baseball. What makes the site – which has been dormant for a while – so great is that it is not run by the mythical “guy living in his Mom’s basement.” In fact, one of the main writers is Mose Schrute<\/a>.<\/p>\n Mose is better known as Michael Schur<\/a>, a writer from “The Office<\/a>” and “Parks and Recreation<\/a>,” who also portrayed the brother<\/span> cousin of Dwight Schrute<\/a> in “The Office. Other contributors were Alan Yang and Dave King, also TV writers. The blog pretty much ended because of their workloads, particularly Schur’s when “Parks and Recreation,” which he co-created, got started.<\/p>\n
