Keep your inconvenient facts to yourself, buster.

I am reminded of a quote--attributed to either De Gaul or Clemenceau, no one can quite decide which--when he was told someone was "indispensable".

"The graveyards are filled with indispensable men."

And so it is with supposedly immortal sporting traditions.

De Gaul? Clemenceau? usurped?

In a match-up with Kasept - I'd take Tector and the points.
