Do you mean we won't see a three-way tie in the GOO game, or we won't see any of the people involved as the answer in the GOO game? ;)

By the time I left town, he had a whole 20 minutes of the hour-long midday newscast for the fucking weather, and boy did he find trivia to fill it: Average dew points across Cook County on this day in 1854, theta-e temperature predictions for every Cubs home game next season, you name it.
