The Breakfast Table

In Which a Deal Is Proposed

Seth, I see now there’s some major talent at these Olympics, and we gotta start working the angles. Those biathletes have been big, big, big even before they started doing James Bond flicks.

And I’m on the phone with Vince McMahon now. Says he’s doing the Victims of Figure Skating World Championships and wants Jamie Salé and Kerrigan in the mud as soon as possible. You want in on this?
