The rule of scoredboard


Dec 29, 2004, 10:48 PM

Recently I've noticed an alarming trend among sports fans. Somehwere along the way it seems that many have forgotten the rule of "scoreboard". Maybe its a deficiency in current sports coverage on TV or maybe its just a generational difference, but the rule of scoreboard must not be forgotten.

Its a simple rule.
It reads as follows:

1. It is never ever wrong to claim
scoreboard after a victory
2. No argument after that claim shall
diminish the claim of scoreboard
3. "Scoreboard" is all that needs be said
after a victory
4. It can be debated which is a better program.
It can be debated which had a better season.
It can be debated who "owns" who.
But it CANNOT be debated who owns scoreboard.
5. Be it a last second, fluke, debatable,
controversial, unpopular, lucky, or ugly
victory, it still deserves "scoreboard"
6. Stats lie. The scorebaord doesn't.
7. A picture of a scorebaord is worth well
more than a thousand words.
8. If a fan of team A claims his team owns
team B, but yet team A lost the last
head to head matchup then "scoreboard"
is still a valid claim against team A.
9. Past records make NO difference to scoreboard.
10. Scoreboard lives until a new scoreboard
is born. (Caveat :Particularly beautiful
scoreboards live forever)
11. Scoreboard *ends* arguments.
It doesn't begin them.
There is NO arguing scoreboard.


Fans of both teams (though more recently USC fans) have shown an alarming ignorance of this rather simple rule.

At this rate, you're getting enough points to be able to claim scoreboard yourself. ;)
