I wish this was a joke, but it isn't.

I was listening to the morning news this morning while I was eating breakfast. The anchor reported that gunshots had rung out in a Birmingham apartment complex Saturday night and that one man was dead. The gunfire had culminated a heated argument over the Alabama-Auburn game. I'm sitting there thinking, "How stupid getting into a fight over a sporting event".

Later on in the newscast, while I'm putting my coffee cup in the dishwasher, they run a clip of an interview with the dead man's sister. In the interview she rags on the media for getting it all wrong, they were NOT arguing about the UA-AU football game. "Thank goodness the media got it wrong", I thought, "I'd like to think that folks haven't sunk that low".

As I was closing the door to the dishwasher, the sister concluded the interview with, "They were fighting over the Miami Heat game".
