Colbert: It's High Time The Government Stays Out Of Our Sweatpants

Jon Stewart Reports That Sweatpants Do Not Make A Good Holster

Now this is no home-field advantage oncesoever: when a stray Florida Gators fan broke out the car keys to make noise in the face of an FSU Seminoles (and when the hell did this start?
