Repoz reads the Emory Wheel.
Bryce Harper hit a ball 502 feet. Yes, it was with an aluminum bat, but I think we should give him a break, seeing as he's in 10th freaking grade.
A very logical way to fix the NFL's overtime rules. (H/T: Tango.)
Stephen Curry from 75 feet.
An excellent interview with Malcolm Gladwell. Reading this on the plane was an interesting experience.
Acie Law has $10K on the Cowboys to win the 2010 Super Bowl. Straight up.

I'm pretty picky on books, and I must say, although Gladwell's subject matter can sometimes be intriguing, his writing is dull and his conclusions are not so profound. I guess his schtick is his build-up of promising us answers to some interesting questions and eventually falls flat for me.
I'm only basing this off of reading "The Tipping Point". And it's been a while, but I remember this was my initial reaction.
I read Outliers on a plane, too. It was somewhat comforting to see how much shit has to go wrong for a plane crash, but still.
