What BBN said about it

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorThe San Francisco 49ers improved to five and oh with a thirty-two to twenty-nine win over Seattle, with Mike Evans grabbing seven receptions for one hundred thirteen yards and a touchdown.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIs seven a lot of catches? It sounds like a lot of catching.
Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorFor a receiver, seven is a very good night. He catches it, he runs with it, and the defense gets angry about it.
Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorThe Niners are three and oh in their division too.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorGold and red. They look expensive.
Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorThey look undefeated, Vera. Different thing, and it's the only thing.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWho won the other one with all the points?
Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorDetroit beat Arizona forty-five to twenty-one, and Baltimore beat Atlanta thirty to twenty-three in overtime. Overtime is bonus football.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorFree football. I love a free thing.
