Other Than That, Mrs. Lincoln...

Steelers beat Reds, 14-10... Jerry Narron responds to 18th loss in 23 games by saying, "We did a great job offensively.''

Which brings to mind:

Davy Crockett at the Alamo: "We did a great job, defensively.''

Custer at L.B.H. -- "Cool headdresses.''

Pickett at Gettysburg: "I liked our spunk.''

'64 Phillies: "We gave it a good, long run.''

Titanic sinks: Passengers Treated to After-Dinner Swim!

Great Depression creates greater appreciation for dimes!

1929, what a great year for camping out!

Elvis died, but how 'bout that Annette Funicello!

And so on. Feel free to add your own lunacy.

I have quite a few here...

Chad Johnson on CB Al Harris: "The bad thing is, he has to cover me. The good, is, he can save 15 percent by switching his insurance to Geico."

Carson Palmer: "It makes it easy when you got a defense out there playing."

Kobe Bryant on why he shoots so much: "I have to be assertive, and if the ball doesn't go in, it gives us a good rebounding opportunity."

Steve Mariucci on Charles Rogers after Rogers had 4 receptions for 41 yards: "I thought he played well. I think he made a good statement today."

Deion Sanders on the state of his body: "If women weren't present, I'd take off my shirt and show you how good I look. Trust me, 37-year-olds can't do what I do."

Mike Tyson: "My biggest weakness is my sensitivity. I'm too sensitive."

John Daly on a rain delay: "I've had marriages that have lasted shorter than this."
