- What are the Tampa Bay Bucs? Only Kidding. Football, right?
- I was in New England Comics with my most excellent sweetie (yes, you
- can be revolted by that phrase) on Sunday and the poor Pats were
- actually winning against some Florida team. Meanwhile, the
- sportscasters were coming up with some of the most obscure and
- outlandish statistics I have *ever* heard.
-
- "Yes, Bob. And did you know that this is only the third game
- this team has ever played in below-freezing weather?"
-
- "That's right, Al. And they lost two of those games. I think
- the weather is really going to affect the game."
-
- "OH, and he just missed the pass! Look at those shadows on
- the field, Bob -- the cold weather is really taking its toll."
-
- WHERE on God's green earth do they come up with these
- factoids? And does *anybody* really care? I really heard this -- I'm
- not making this up.
