Sorry for yesterday’s fit of pique. I must have had subconscious premonitions about the abomination of a football game last night in which the Ralphie Ciffaretto crew – er Oakland Raiders (sorry for the disrespect, Mr. C) – gave the Ralphie Treatment to the locals. (BTW, given what happened to Ralphie in Episode 9, the term “Ralphie Treatment” may lose its vigor. A pity.)
