And reminding us that another error of his from the same telecast was a lot more important in the world-historical scheme of things.↵

If you’re wondering, yes, the Denver Ambrose Jellymakers were a real team. They participated in the Amateur Athletic Union, the original AAU, which despite its name was a forerunner of the NBA. And all you bloggers out there, today a certain gigantic, difficult man with a plan is laughing at you and you only.↵
