the big difference in the Grey Cup looks like it's going to be that one time had a QB Sneak specialist who scored multiple touchdowns and the other team had a QB Sneak specialist who fumbled on the goal line

I’m going to be honest with you: The headline is appalling, but the piece, which indeed has an absolutely bizarre tone of nostalgia, is worse.
