We don't have a quote-unquote dominant team...
JESUS CHRIST ON A VT100.  It's bad enough when people actually say "quote-unquote" (as opposed to saying "quote, this is a quote, unquote", or in this case, the more correct "so-called" or the pretentious but accurate "soi-disant"), but when someone writes it instead of using, you know, quote marks, it's just another paving brick on the road to hell.

I just recently watched an interview with Stephen Wright, who said that he wished his first word had been "quote", so that right before he died, he could say "unquote".
