I might be biased, though, because I'm more of a       baseball fan. And the lack of Costas didn't help. Oddly, Costas was on the       show the previous night -- I wonder why they didn't get him to do this sketch.              > + ...

Probably those       were last-minute additions to the script.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
