During our midnight screening of Batman Begins, when Gordon flipped over the card that said Joker, a guy dressed in a Bat suit rose to his feet, cheering. The guy in front of him said β€œthat’s it,” turned around, and punched him in the face.

YouTube video by Road Less Marveled May 1, 1969: Fred Rogers testifies before the Senate Subcommittee on Communications

I've always thought that they end up being the '85 Bears: one-year great team waylaid by Stuff and their own ego.

They needed something to drive them and I don't think going back to back would've done it.

Tsunami Advisory: Tsunami is likely *but will probably be small.* Evacuations unlikely.
Tsunami Warning: Tsunami is likely *and may be large.* Evacuations needed.
