Ouch.
Jeremy Blachman is the author of Anonymous Lawyer, a satirical novel that should make people who didn't go to law school feel good about their life choices. Read more at McSweeney's or elsewhere. He likes e-mail.
This reminds me of that time when I had to face Ruben Tejada in a sliding competition.
Not the most graceful thing I’ve ever seen, but I have to give props to the guy for using his hands to tag first rather than keep his face from slamming into the dirt.
