Let me start off by saying that I like pizza a lot.<\/p>\n

I like round pizza and I like square pizza.<\/p>\n

I like pizza where the crust is thick and I like pizza where the crust is thin.<\/p>\n

I like pizza when it comes in a pan and I like pizza when it is made by a guy named Stan.<\/p>\n

I also like sports, and for some reason sports just taste better when paired with pizza.<\/p>\n

I am not sure what it is that makes pizza taste even better when sports are on. I am sure that there are graduate students seeking grants somewhere in the world to solve that very mystery.<\/p>\n
