The Possum

Just finished reading a George Jones article in a current magazine.  While the first paragraph started out great:
 

To frame George Jones' rightful place in the country music pantheon, ask any rock-and-roll star to rank the greatest country recording artists of the past 75 years. Hank Williams, Johnny Cash and George Jones will top every list. Williams and Cash are known as the Hillbilly Shakespeare and the Man in Black, respectively. But Jones, who may be the greatest heartbreak balladeer ever, was saddled with the disparaging epithet No Show Jones.

Great start, right?  But the article continued and then became the lamest, sorriest excuse for a piece ever done on George Jones.

For those not in the know, the reason he's called The Possum is because his eyes are so close together.

Not only was the article lame, it failed to mention the #1 all-time greatest country song.
Ever.
Ask anyone.
