Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
A neighbor just recced this to me and I'm wondering if anyone's read it.
