So the Cardinals just scored a TD in their game against the Panthers, with 2:43 left in the first quarter. The announcer (not sure who it was) took the opportunity to point out that that was the Cardinals' first TD in the first quarter in the Eastern time zone all season. I am not making this up. That is possibly the most unnecessary stat I've ever heard mentioned on a broadcast.
And they just scored again. And brought up the same point again.
Now there's a graphic on how the Cardinals haven't played well in the Eastern time zone, pointing out losses to the Eagles, Panthers, Giants, Patriots, and Jets. ALL THOSE TEAMS HAD BETTER RECORDS THAN THE CARDINALS. THE GAMES LOGICALLY SHOULD HAVE WORKED OUT HOW THEY DID. THE TIME ZONE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
I'm almost expecting them to say that this would be the Cardinals' first win in the state of North Carolina this season.
P.S: Congratulations to Joe Flacco on being the first player to start at quarterback on a team that won two playoff games. They would probably have done just as well with Troy Smith.
