Streaking to the Record

OK, people! And by people, I mean sports writers and broadcasters. Let me explain something to you. With their 23-0 win over the Tennessee Flaming Thumbtack yesterday, the Indianapolis Colts became the first team to win 12 or more games for six consecutive years. I have seen at least twice (once here) and heard at least twice (Bob Lamey and on WFBQ) that the Colts "broke" their record of five consecutive 12-plus win seasons. The Colts did not break the record, you fucktards, they extended their record! The five season streak was the current streak. If this was their second five season streak, then they would have broken the record. Since it is the current streak, they EXTENDED their record streak.

The Boston Celtics just set a team record with 19 consecutive victories. If they has beaten the Lakers last week and extended their streak to 20 consecutive victories, you would not have said that they "broke" their record, would you? No, they extended it! Got it!

If the Colts "extend" their streak next season and you write/say they "broke" their record again, we will "break" your legs.
