Footballclimatechange

In a video for Funny or Die, Bill Nye takes on "Deflategate" with a proper lack of respect, and a focus on climate, while former fan Steve Almond cuts football's legs out from under it, with a passionate attack:

In a great interview with Jon Weiner of The Nation, Almond goes on to mock today's concussion carnival, and points out that the National Football League itself says that nearly 30% of players end up permanently brain damaged as a result of playing.
