Why Sports Needs English Majors

"Who has played for the most different teams in the post season?"

Or, better yet, who on the Fox Sports programming staff can put together a grammatically correct sentence? Yep, this was one of the trivia questions posed to viewers during last night's Red Sox game.

And of course, my first reaction as a Jew was, "Why is this team different from all other teams?"

If they tried to put it into proper grammatical english, the majority of their viewers probably wouldn't understand what they were asking.

What do we expect? It's Fox after all.
