Who's the boss? It's clear.<br /><br />Look at this line:<br /><br />"I look forward to the scholarly dismantling of the Richwine thesis. Have at it. I’ll happily publish the grotesque, racist errors that somehow got past Christopher Jencks."<br /><br />Give due credit: that's an all-destroying thunderbolt from Olympus.<br /><br />I only wish Andy would retract a few of the things he said about the Derb over the years, even if he doesn't like him.
