Why In The WORLD Do We Root For This Team?

Leitch — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 16:00:54 EST

OK, we think we're ready to talk about that horrific Buzzsaw loss yesterday. First off, we absolutely deserved that to happen: Our post last week daydreaming about the playoffs broke every Buzzsaw fan law we know. No Arizona team should ever be favored by 10 1/2 points. Ever. More »
