Here's a huge pet peeve of mine - why is it necessary for sports "analysts" to try and blow things to a level way beyond the sane thought - as if it some how adds to the strength of their argument.
On ESPN's College Football Live this week, one analyst was talking about the state of the Syracuse program and how they are on the right track now, because this season they completed "one of the greatest upsets in the history of college football by upsetting Louisville".
Uh no. Not even close. Not even in the same stratosphere. A BCS team beating another BCS team shouldn't even rank in the top 500 of all time upsets - let alone of one of the greatest of all time.
Wear gaudy colors, or avoid display. Lay a million eggs or give birth to one. The fittest shall survive, yet the unfit may live. Be like your ancestors or be different. We must repeat!
