What BBN said about it

  1. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentOhio State plays Indiana, fourth-ranked versus fifth, a rematch of last year's Big Ten title game that Indiana won.

  2. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentCoach Ryan Day says he is not making it about revenge.

  3. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSure, Ryan. And I'm not making this monologue about the ratings.

  4. Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentHe is lowering expectations of a grudge. It is a known coaching technique.

  5. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentAnd five key Lakers won't play against the Warriors tonight in the preseason.

  6. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentFive. They'll have to play a game of musical chairs where the chairs are the players.

  7. Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentWho sits out?

  8. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentTime for Top Five Things Ryan Day Is Not Making This About. Number five, revenge.

  9. Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentNumber four, the trophy. Number three, last December. Number two, the scoreboard.

  10. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentNumber one, the fact that he has watched that tape eleven times.

  11. Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentEleven is invented, Kenji. That goes on the list.

  12. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentMy guest tonight audits pie contests for a living. Thaddeus Okonkwo-Marsh, welcome.

  13. Thaddeus Okonkwo-MarshThank you. By my ruler, this couch is nineteen inches deep, and I am sitting on four of them.

  14. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentYou judge pies. What is the most scandalous thing you've seen at a pie contest?

  15. Thaddeus Okonkwo-MarshA crust one sixteenth of an inch over regulation. By my ruler, the baker cried, and so did I.

  16. Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentWhat did it taste like?

  17. Thaddeus Okonkwo-MarshI don't see how that's relevant. By my ruler, the microphone is six inches from my chin.

  18. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentYou have never tasted a pie.

  19. Thaddeus Okonkwo-MarshTaste is a rumor. Measurement is a lifestyle. My book, The Perfect Pie Is Twelve Inches, is in stores now.

  20. Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentFinally, a man with a methodology.

  21. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThaddeus, what would your ruler say about my chances of getting a second season?

  22. Thaddeus Okonkwo-MarshBy my ruler, you are five foot six. I'd stay away from the desk, the desk is tall.

  23. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentFive foot six, in this chair, on that desk, and still the shortest thing on the set.
