One of the great, timeless traditions of bye weeks is staying glued to the television, (or iPads or GameStations or whatever you kids are using today) hoping to earn the chance to laugh at the misfortune of others, with no chance of immediate karmic payback for it. Giggling at Miami taking a quick L courtesy of Cajun Fred Flinstone was short-lived and the comedic value of Florida’s loss to Kentucky couldn’t reach its full potential given FSU’s own miscues those weekends.
But a bye week, there lies a true opportunity to be undeservingly petty without the fear of eating crow minutes or hours later.
