Like a swift kick to the biscuits

Why do I root for Rutgers and the Browns?

A collective a 0-6 record. A collectively embarrassing highlight (or should I say "lowlight"? ZINGER!) reel.

I love sports, if only because they afford a sense of drama to my purposefully drama-free life. They're pure, unscripted soap-operas, where the actors occasionally destroy each others' ACLs. And at the end of each episode, even after the epic overtime nail-biters, the drama is gone and I'm back to real life.

But, 0-6. Fooey and damnation.
