Sports! Well, only tangentially. Just the title, and even barely then. I had a completely ludicrous first draft title for this baby that I’m frankly too humiliated to even bring up. So I won’t. I mean, things live on the Internet forever. And there’s already ample material out there demonstrating my shitheadedness. Why do we need another? Right?
So yeah. I love it when a good title comes together to hold the whole puzzle in place. Enjoy.
Share the puzzle. New one on Monday.
great puzzle
Outstanding. Just a little snag with 18Dx21A. Otherwise so smooth I was done before I knew what the theme was.
Now I’ll spend the rest of the day trying to figure out what the original title was…
18D/21A. Never had a chance. Otherwise, fun stuff. Thanks.
Nice! Took me a while to work out the theme even with the solution in hand.
Minor typo in 52D (should be analyst).
Great job!
Thank you, Mr. Quigley, for this interactive crossword site. I had trouble with 51 across and the center section of the answer going down (53 and 54), but by getting immediate confirmation from your site, I was able to complete the puzzle correctly. I had earlier today tried three City Paper boxes, but they were already empty of yesterday’s issue.
A real puzzle
Tough to get this theme. You have to be young enough to know Radio Disney and old enough to remember flared pants.
