Sportsetizer

Thank goodness the football season has started again! Nice break from politics, although I have to point out that NFL pre-season coverage, including fantasy football league draft analysis, has been galactically more thorough, robust, fact-based, even-handed, and higher-quality than election coverage. Oh well. That said, there's so much coverage of sports that it's still easy to find some really bad bits, too. Funniest example: an article predicting Notre Dame will do well because they have 16 returning starters. 16! That sounds good, except that those 16 starters laster year won only 3 games. So at least someone out there is excited that the same incompetent people will be getting yet another stab at screwing things up. Wait a minute-- I think I've gone back to talking about Republicans again....
