    Anyone who appears on 60 Minutes has to know the Don Hewitt techniques by now. You're just asking for tight face shots and shitty questions designed to evolke said emotions. I like Andre. Katie makes my flesh shudder.

    Many people have had their little demons to deal with, big fucking deal. I have, too. Get over it. This is the best you can come up with Katie for interview fodder?

    Leave it to Couric to be slicey and dicey. Tell me she wasn't popping sedatives like M&M's when her husband died, let's do an in-depth interview on that one. This shitty reporting makes me gag...pure dreck and sensationalism by going for the jugular.

    His old competitors/fellow pros who critically weighed in can eat shit, too. He does a lot of charity work, then and now, I think he deserves a bit of forgiveness and cheer.

    Just one more thing...he's way sexy bald then with that colored, lion's mane mullet he used to sport.

    Can I get a witness???? #andreagassi

    @Kimrod: couric is one of the worst interviewers ever. she makes me cringe. i want to see her being interviewed after she finally writes a memoir when she's, say, 70...and then she'll have to really answer the questions. #andreagassi

    Agassi had one of the most exhilarating comeback runs in the history of sports, seems to have a joyous family life with a fellow tennis champion, and continues to do indispensable charity work. it's called growing up. take notes, Gawker. #andreagassi

    His career plummeted as a result of his meth addiction not soared. I can't understand why those tennis players are acting like he took a performance enhancing drug? I mean are they really that stupid? I would like some steroid testing to go on in tennis , let me remember the players who oppose it oh yeah Navratilova, Serena and Amelie Mauresmo. I would have distanced myself from Agassi too, but that would have happened when he had his brother running around Paris for some glue for that horrible weave of his. #andreagassi

    People have been jogging with strollers for at least a decade. Is this some kind of new trend, or are they just re-running an old piece to prop-up the profits?

    @Magister: more like over two decades, since the mid-80s. but then they were used by regular people who just into running. that is less than important than whatever rich people find interesting right now.

    Actually, that BOB jogger is pretty awesome! I do run with it, it is harder than running alone, but I can't afford a babysitter, or a gym (with a babysitter) and I talked my MIL into buying it for us as a family gift. It's also the best stroller ever. Also, I'm doing a marathon in 5 weeks! yay me! What was this post about?

    But what of the decidedly portly men who ride New Jersey Transit with large briefcase/suitcase/wheelbarrow push carts that in their haste to run full-out at .05 miles per hour to catch the next damnable train taking them further into the bowels of New Jersey, they simultaneously run over your pinkie toe (in strappy sandals), sexually molest you with their triple-ton girth full of beer and cheese fries, and surely blow pig-aids infused spittle in your direction from the extreme exertion of "big belly/small legs" physical effort, half a masticated cow hovering near their intestines, and the fight to choke back imminent immediate angina...i.e. you've been squashed, stepped on, and practically airlifted back over the bridge to Manhattan where you obviously should have never left.

    Does this qualify as an intense workout?

    @thegreatfratsby: Uh, sorry, but I think these commuter Robeasts should get their own NYT trend piece. If I have to fight one once a week, by God somebody better start talking about it! Yupsters with strollers are nothing compared to a large Jerseyite with a wheeled trunk full of (pot roast?) for a battering ram.

    @Spirit Fingers: I'll one up you. Ever been to Boston? Imagine that Jerseyite with a Boston accent, a volume-control issue, and a haht fulla huht cuz the sahx lost.

    And he's sneezing on you.

    And the train's delayed because Chinatown Station has lit on fire. (This actually happened--FengHua immediately offered to buy it and add it to their bus fleet).

    @thegreatfratsby: The New Jersey PATH train in its entirety.

    Ride during rush hour. It's a savory experience. Rare to find B.O. that potent outside of a 8th grade locker room on turkey sub day. Like being inside a garbonzo beaned armpit.

    I don't think the worst error is when you don't even try... it's when you're a thirty-something-year-old woman still acting like a high schooler just because of tennis.

    Sure, I still run, after the kids are in bed, when it's dark, and dodging texting teen drivers. But I sure as shit don't have time to pose for photographs in front of stunning New England fall foliage.
