Wednesday Backpasses: How am I going to compete with that?

Well, Hell. If Spectator gets to run a picture of Omar (and not use my tag for The Wire), then I get to run a picture of my favorite character--Bodie in an impromptu meeting with McNutty.

That scene at the end of Season 4 when Bodie says to McNulty, "We're all just pawns" is my favorite scene from the series. Thought you'd like to know.

Oh had no idea about the tag. Added it!

I agree with Andrew. The best part about it is that it's a reference to the first season, when D'Angelo was teaching Bodie chess in the low rises.

@Mag: Indeed. It all ties back into each other.
