Oh, you mean the *team*, I thought you meant about all this rampant 
depression about a 20-12 team.

Cold?  That wouldn't have had anything to do with the improved Celtic 
defense in the fourth quarter, would it?  No, no, that would be giving the 
team too much credit.

Oh, Clyde said that?  Well, it must be true, then.  I know that I, for one,
  live and die by what Clyde and "other commentators" say.  They're so 
smart.  And it's all about Obie's guts -- it *couldn't* be that he 
*actually* thinks that this is the way Walker should play the game.  No, 
that would go counter to what "commentators" think, so it must be wrong.

Please.  The team won.  Try acting like it.
