    Watched the 60 Minutes piece on college football and got aggravated yet again. Besides being an absolutely insipid piece -- college football is really a big-time pressure cooker with lots of dollars chasing fewer profits; who knew? -- they twice said that Cowboys Stadium is in Dallas. Cowboys Stadium is in Arlington. Arlington is in Tarrant County (county seat: Fort Worth). Cowboys Stadium is NOT in Dallas. [/endofrant]
