I wouldn’t have a problem with this if it were funnier, or less filled with irony. But the NFL’s new TV ad featuring Dallas Cowboys players mocking Jessica Simpson for her weight gain is now rattling around the web, and I suppose it’s up to us to view it.

I don’t know how to say this so I’m just going to say it: A Boise, Idaho high school basketball coach was arrested on Monday for masturbating while walking through a Costco store.
