Well, I'm glad they played the game, at least.

There had been a lot of talk about a "negotiated settlement"

I dunno. Superbowl VXIMMXVIILV where Cain clunked Abel's noggin cause Pa liked Abel best still takes the cake for good ol' rugged noggin-clunking. Course, Cain's career was all downhill after that. Wound up playing semi-pro ball in the East Eden beer & pretzels league. They said he hadda bad attitude. Maybe it was the 'roids.

Check out the clip again.

The two best parts I noticed were:
1) the beaver was keeping perfect time by tapping his TAIL not his foot
2) when he was playing in the subway, he had his case open infront of him to accept tips!

What a hoot!!
