an e-mail we got at T&FN today:

<<In another pathetic example of how our sport rates in the greater sports world at 
large, this was the entire - and incorrect - coverage that my
hometown paper, the Austin American-Statesman, gave to the Grand Prix final:

"Track and field 

Andre Bucher beat Allen Johnson in the 800 meters for the IAAF Grand Prix men's 
overall title in Melbourne, Australia. Bucher had 102 Grand
Prix points, one more than Johnson."

Yes, folks, football season is here. Please don't bother sports reporters - especially 
here in Texas - with anything else until February.>>
