Heh. I posted an Amazon screenshot right above this of something else. I thought I had written bad HTML, like not closing an IMG SRC tag? Then I looked at what you had posted.

Lady Karma doesn't like that presumptuous attitude. You don't mess with her.

FWIW, there were similar books ready and taking preorders on Amazon in the event of a Giants win. Seems to be standard practice.

I don't doubt that, but did the Giants trademark anything? The Pats legally locking up 19-0 was so arrogant - and I say that as a New England native and fan!

ISTR an Onion article about what a novelty store did with all the championship t-shirts pre-made for the losing team one year.

EDIT: (Oh, I'm sure it's standard practice to do it for both teams, but it's still funny.)

I think the 19-0 Patriots book was written by the same guy who gave us "How Rudy Became President", "Alex Rodriguez: World Series MVP", and "Dewey Beats Truman".
