    There you go ...

    Death has this much to be said for it:
    You don’t have to get out of bed for it.
    Wherever you happen to be
    They bring it to you—free.

    Settling aside the fact it was a joke, do you really expect her to know who each of the ten thousand plus athletes are and what they do?
