That girl was barely old enough to drive.
But, yeah.

This was from an interview with Chomsky that was later published in the Chomsky Reader. It isn't presented as a peer-reviewed and vetted fact, but as a thought exercise in how the average person really does possess the ability for critical thought and dialectical exploration of relatively complicated topics.
But, hey, don't let your ability to read links and never bother reading actual content get in the way of reactive trolling.

Specifically, fans of football teams other than the Pats, plus men appreciating ball handling by a Miss America contestant.
"I think I'd have to be there to see the ball, and feel it to make sure it was deflated or not deflated."

I guess some guys would enjoy one of the most beautiful women in the world scrutinizing their balls, but I feel like that would make most of them shrivel right up.
I'll take that chance, Malcolm

Wow, more meaningless people commenting on a meaningless news story. An actor and a model - two people surely famous for their sober, intellectual, and learned approach to issues - give an opinion on a guy who's contribution to society is ball-throwing. A guy who has generated tons of news stories and for/against whom millions of dollars have probably been spent, because he may have made one of those balls a tiny, tiny bit firmer to grip.
