You go here you go.

Oblivious.

That's the nothing personal word of the day Wednesday September 20th, 2023.

Oblivious covers all sorts of sins when something happens you get to say, hey, I had no

idea. Plenty of ways that we could start nothing personal today. So much unbelievable things

happening in baseball as we head toward the playoffs. But I saw this story about Sean

McVey and the Los Angeles Rams in football and it's too good to be true and too scary

to ignore. Let me set the stage for those of you who are oblivious to what took place

last weekend. The San Francisco 49ers were playing the Los Angeles Rams. Sean McVey

still the youngest coach in the NFL with the Super Bowl ring. That's amazing to have accomplished

what he's accomplished to have been as good as they've been as bad as they are and still

be the youngest coach. They're down 10 30 to 20. Games coming to an end. The Rams have

the ball. They're driving. They set up for a field goal because it's fourth down four

Everyone runs off the field. Niners win, undefeated, heading toward the Super Bowl. Maybe

the Rams continue on their losing ways, except it's what people call in the gambling world

a bad beat. A bad beat is when something happens during the course of a game at the end of

a game. It also known sometimes as a backdoor cover. A backdoor cover is when a team is down

by 14 points and the spread is eight points and you've got the underdog. So you've got

the favorite. You've got the underdog. Whatever. The spread is eight points. All of a sudden

there's a touchdown scored at the very end by the team down 14. Doesn't matter. The

team then only wins by seven. So the favorite doesn't cover the underdog does. Why is that
