Shocking that the luckiest teams are all in the West

The writer keeps using "lucky" to explain the good fortune of some over others. I'll buy that as soon as someone explains why the drawings are done behind closed doors instead of live on a public stage.

Is that how they draw Power Ball winners? Rolling Eyes

Because they're really boring? The teams all have representatives in the room, and they're often recorded and posted soon after the event. You can watch the whole of last year's here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC3-C1Rjkfg - if you really want to.

Aww. It's no fun to bring facts to a good conspiracy theory.

Agreed, Really terrible of Richyyy to bother us with FACTS. Smile

The post before Richyyy's reminded me of something important. When I was a boy, baseball was unquestionably the country's #1 sport. It was commonly called our "national pastime." In 2021, is our #1 sport football? Basketball? Soccer? None of the above. Our #1 sport by far is conspiracy theories.

Which reminds me. When is John F. Kennedy Jr. showing up at a rally with Trump? Smile

Look how unsurprised I am that the Fever are the least lucky team in the league.
