I think I've figured out the Sportswriters' Formula.
1. Make a crazy point.
2. Flesh out that crazy point with multiple qualifiers & counter-examples which cast doubt on to the crazy point just made.
3. Return to crazy point undeterred, as though you actually just strengthened your argument.
4. Patronize.
5. Utilize fantastically ridiculous simile/metaphor to drive home the crazy point you just inadvertently destroyed through your own circular reasoning.
And I swear to god if anyone here replies with a "6. Profit!!," I'm going to figure out how to castrate you via an IP address.
