What do sports fans know about arithmetic anyways?

Yesterday on the TV that was showing a college basketball game (which no-one was paying attention to), they were scrolling other sports team news and scores (this is ESPN, you know), and the following wonderfully insightful update came by:

[Team A] and [Team B] are currently tied, 69-66, at the end of the 3rd period.

Uh, did I miss something in my P.E. classes about what constitutes a "tie"?

Naw... 69 and 66 look identical if you're dyslexic! *grin*
