 Sports Media Watch and The Digest will return in full force
next Monday. But meanwhile, while we get over our Boxing Day hangover, we just
wanted to remind you of why we’re here in the first place. It’s not just for
the banner ads – it’s because, as far as we know, it is mathematically
impossible to score -3 points in a professional football game. And the
screenshot follows.
Not only was the final score of the Redskins/Giants game not 28-17, as this ESPN.com screenshot (taken yesterday) would seem to indicate. Curiously, the Giants actually managed to score -3 points in the 4th quarter. Which comes as a surprise to all of us who were watching. Enjoy, and enjoy the New Year -- see you Monday. |
