I almost missed it.

Blame it on Pain Week (Day Five, btw) but I *almost* missed one of my favourite holidays: the anniversary of Buster Douglas putting out the lights on Mike Tyson. Twenty years ago yesterday. Forget the Miracle on Ice; this was Belarus beating Sweden at the 2002 winter olympics. Times one hundred. This was No Chance versus Cakewalk. This was some lazy Saturday afternoon sports viewing, broadcast from Tokyo, that suddenly turned into something that can still make me cry.
