The odds were against the team that faced the number
one team in college football. In the first half, the
challenger took a commanding lead, but in the second
half, the #1 team took over and ran away with the game.
A man and his buddy watched the game. The buddy was
a big fan of the challenger. When it became apparent
that the #1 team would win decisively, the man tried
to make his buddy face statistical reality and perhaps
feel better by telling him this pun: There was a person
who sent ten different puns to friends, in the hope
that at least one of the puns would make them laugh.
No pun in ten did. “The odds were against you, buddy,”
the man said while his buddy picked up his football
and went home.
