"New England was no better than Detroit,they missed the playoffs too"

My only problem with that is this highlighted text - If he does not know the difference, then he's got issues with math - last time I checked 11 is always greater than 0.

Clearly, comparing last season's Pats and Lions in terms of personnel and performance is ridiculous. However, while 11 is indeed "always greater than 0," nonetheless, in 2008, "11" left the pats in the same boat as "0" left the Lions; there's no link to the original quote, but if that's the point, it's valid, if gratuitous.
