Complaint to BBC regarding Pete the Badge

crazyg said:
I get really pissed off by the "within 12 points..." comment. They're not . They're EXACTLY 12 points behind! Yet City are 8 points behind - not within 8 points.
All commentators use the expression "within x points". Why?? did they not do sums at school? 4 - 2 = 2, not within 2.

And breathe.

Actually 2=<2.

Please explain. Not for me, obviously, as I fully understand the concept, but for others who are not quite as adept at sums.

You can take 2 away from 2 without going below zero, so 2 is within 2.
 
I'm not sure what Harry says is right.
Zero's a number and so is pi and it's never going to be complete and maybe infinity would be dead lonely. You'd have to ask it. But I'm not sure it's a number. More of a value in search of a number. And how lonely must that be, Harry? Harry's a bit lonely these days.

One-sided beatings that spring to mind include Manchester United's 8-2 win against Arsenal, England bowling Australia out for 60 and Goldberg squashing Lesnar (maybe not the last one).

There must be loads of times when a rugby team has racked up 100 points, or when Usain Bolt won the 100m when the rest were still in the blocks.



Yet no mention of the sick swan a few weeks after, airbrushing fuckers.
